Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Education often occurs at the primary level of prevention. The primary level of prevention focus-es on preventing a problem before it occurs. Teaching well-baby classes to new mothers focuses on tertiary prevention as the teen pregnancy has already occurred. Providing services for preg-nancy detection is secondary prevention. Counseling a young couple about abortion and adoption is tertiary prevention.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Adolescents may not seek care because their access to care is hindered by either lack of profes-sionals or costs of the care; they may fear that health care professionals will not be able to discuss sensitive topics with them in a non-judgmental way. Although health may not be a top priority, it shouldn't be assumed that teenagers do not care about it. Most likely, parents are aware of the services available for adolescents but may not be able to access these services for a variety of reasons.
