Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D, E
OHNs focus on the promotion, prevention, and restoration of health within the context of a safe and healthy work environment. Focus includes prevention of adverse health effects from occupational and environmental hazards. Approximately 60 of these 35,000 nurses work alone, making decisions regarding health and safety issues, influencing policy in health and safety, and planning and implementing myriad health programs. More than 65 of nurses practicing in occupational health are prepared at the baccalaureate level or higher. OHNs do not usually make home visits. Most collaboration is done with occupational health professionals, such as industrial hygienists and ergonomists, rather than physicians. Studies show that physician collaboration occurs in up to only 8 of cases.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Participatory action research calls for nurses, community members, and other resource people to work together in identifying health problems, designing the studies, collecting and analyzing the data, disseminating the results, and posing solutions to the problems. The research process (use of control groups, randomization, and using a predetermined hypothesis) is part of participatory action research.
