Answer to Question 1

B, C, D
Work disability includes a person who has a problem or disability that prevents him or her from working, has a service-connected disability, has retired or left a job for health reasons, did not work because of long-term physical or mental illness, or did not work in the past 12 months be-cause of illness or disability.

Answer to Question 2

B
One of the ways that a nurse uses identification is by identifying ethical, cultural, and societal issues related to genetic and genomic information and technologies. Assessment is not being performed here because the nurse is not assessing a particular client's needs or history. Referral is not taking place, nor is education, care, or support of a patient.
