Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Access to care is an important determinant of health status and is comprised of five components: 1) availability, 2) accessibility, 3) accommodation, 4) affordability, and 5) acceptability. Achievement is not a component of access to care.

Answer to Question 2

3
With very elevated blood pressure, headache is the most commonly reported symptom. Although pain and nausea may be reported, they are not the most common. Fear is not commonly associated with hypertension though it may occur with an onset of pain or nausea.
