Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Heart disease, obesity, and diabetes are the most common health issues that are experienced among most ethnicities that have been identified by REACH. Therefore, the nurse will include information regarding weight loss. The other topics are not appropriate when using information from REACH.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Asian Americans may contend with infrequent medical visits due to fear of deportation, language and cultural barriers, and lack of health insurance. Income and level of education are more likely to cause health disparities among the Hispanic population. Age is not a factor for infrequent medical visits for Asian Americans.
