Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Medicaid is a federally funded, state-operated program that provides (1) health insurance to low-income families and (2) health assistance to low-income people with long-term care (LTC) disabilities.
Medicare is a financially funded national health insurance program in the United States for peo-ple 65 years and older.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Community health nursing strives to safeguard and improve the health of populations in the community as well as providing direct care services to subpopulations within a community. Pub-lic health nursing is concerned with trends and patterns influencing the incidence of disease within populations. A community health nurse may be involved in direct client care for disease within a community. Public health nursing focuses on the needs of populations. Community health nursing has a broader focus, with an emphasis on the health of a community. The commu-nity health nurse merges public health knowledge with nursing theory. The community health nurse considers the needs of populations and is prepared to provide direct care services to sub-populations within a community. Nurses who become expert in community health practice may have advanced nursing degrees, yet the baccalaureate-prepared generalist also can become quite competent in formulating and applying population-focused assessments and interventions.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
