Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
400 g of folic acid are recommended daily. Supplements of iron and Vitamin C are not recom-mended during preconceptual counseling. Supplements of calcium may be recommended to pre-vent bone loss, but not for preconceptual counseling.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The goal of Healthy People 2020 is to promote responsible sexual behaviors, strengthen commu-nity capacity, and increase access to quality services to prevent STDs and their complications. Nursing activities should align with these goals through development of an STD clinic to increase community access to services. Immunization clinics will not prevent the spread of most STDs. Education without access to services will not assist with reducing the problem.
