Answer to Question 1

Answer: 1
Explanation: 1. Advocating for treatment services and facilities addresses the population health goal of providing treatment for violent persons. Referral to necessary services and removing victims of abuse addresses approaches on an individual level. Educating the public about factors that contribute to the risk of violence is a population health approach that addresses identifying persons at risk for violence, not providing treatment for violent persons.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. Prevention strategies for elder abuse include listening to elders and their caregivers and addressing their needs. Population health nurses can refer elders to day care centers or assist caregivers to access respite services. Suppressing feelings will not prevent the client from acting out aggressively. The client does not need to be reported to the authorities. Recommending that the client move to another city does not take into consideration the client's or the elder parent's needs.
