Answer to Question 1

2,3,4
Rationale: Regular exercise tends to promote good circulation, and is more likely to heal wounds quickly.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Providing seminars for clients in the area would assist the client to be able to participate in her own health promotion. Simple English will not help the client who speaks no English. Displaying signs about risks for different groups is prejudicial and insensitive. Providing information regarding local classes in English, not actually teaching classes, might be a service offered by the agency.
