Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
All of the tasks are related to assessing needs, implementing new care options, or evaluating health outcomes measures in the community except reviewing hospital patient data. Hospital patient data may be helpful but not directly related to the agency's ability to promote primary health and prevent disease.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Research has shown that those with higher levels of education and higher income enjoy physical activity more. Those of mature age, with less education, with less income, and/or living in the southern U.S. states engage in far less activity.
