Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
As the model focuses on sociopolitical and environmental constraints to a client's free choice, it also encourages assessment of such constraints, as well as suggesting alternative avenues to helping the patient obtain needed care. Milio encourages the practice of nursing from a broad understanding of health and illness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Smoking is responsible for about 20 of all deaths in the United States. Although smoking is an individual's choice, all people are affected by social norms. Parenting and sexual behavior classes and legislative changes may influence health, but may not necessarily lead to a longer lifespan. Community health nurses should recognize that health is influenced by a web of factors, some that can be changed and some that cannot. Influencing social norms may better promote change among Americans.
