Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Vulnerable populations have some characteristic that puts them at higher risk for identified health problems. The nurse can best assist vulnerable populations by identifying and working with them to decrease their risks. Researching genetic risks, studying vital statistics, and improving immunizations are all part of the solution, but the overarching priority action is to help the community decrease its risks.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Stakeholders need to be involved in planning to ensure buy-in from the community. The stakeholders could be community or business leaders. The other actions are important, but if the community leaders are not committed to the plan, the plan is unlikely to work.
