Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Educational is not one of Neuman's levels of prevention.
Rationale 2: Primary prevention focuses on protecting the normal line of defense. Providing immunizations would be doing just thatprotecting the body's normal response to disease by helping it to build antibodies.
Rationale 3: Secondary prevention focuses on strengthening internal lines of resistance.
Rationale 4: Tertiary prevention focuses on readaptation and stability.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Primary prevention focuses on protecting the normal line of defense and strengthening the flexible line of defense.
Rationale 2: Secondary prevention focuses on strengthening internal lines of resistance (fighting the infection with IV antibiotics), reducing the reaction, and increasing resistance factors. The fact that the client is now afebrile shows that the treatment is working to improve the client's condition.
Rationale 3: Tertiary prevention focuses on readaptation and stability and protects reconstitution or return to wellness following treatment.
Rationale 4: Critical prevention is not part of Neuman's model.
