Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
The 10 great public health achievements in the 20th century are immunizations; improvements in motor vehicle safety; workplace safety; control of infectious diseases; decline in deaths from heart disease and stroke; safer and healthier foods; healthier mothers and babies; family planning; fluoridation of drinking water; and recognition of tobacco as a health hazard.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The American Nurses Association defines a population as those living in a specific geographic area (e.g., neighborhood, community, city, or county) or those in a particular group (e.g., racial, ethnic, age, disease) who experience a disproportionate burden of poor health outcomes. Using this definition, clients living in Chicago with diabetes represent a population. Diabetes is an example of a particular group in a particular geographic area. The world is not a specific geographic area. Neither immunization clinics in California nor poverty in four continents reflects a specific set of clients.
