Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A solution proposed for the shortage of health care providers is for rural communities to grow their own. A rural community, a group of small communities, or a county could support local students attending college and recruit students currently attending professional schools. The students make a commitment to work in the community in return for monetary support for their educations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Although nurses may use all interventions at all three levels, community/public health nurses working more upstream, at the system level, employ collaboration, coalition building, community organizing, advocacy, social marketing, and policy development and enforcement. In contrast, community/public health nursesworking downstream with individuals, families, or groupsuse surveillance, disease and other health event investigation, outreach, screening, case finding referral and follow-up, case management, delegated functions, health teaching, counseling, and consultation.
