Answer to Question 1

Answer:2
Rationale: The explanation to the mother by the nurse provides an understanding of the immunization series to the mother and enables the mother to make an intelligent choice. While administering immunizations is considered health maintenance,the activity described in the question is clearly health promotion. A health assessment would be completed to determine what immunizations are needed.Health maintenance is the actual administration of the immunization and health screening involves looking at the immunization record to determine which immunizations are needed.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2
Rationale:Health promotion includes strategies designed to improve the state of wellness.Since there is a report of unethical behavior in this scenario,the nurse would not be using health maintenance strategies to address this problem.Health maintenance would not involve a discussion on ethical behaviors. While a discussion on strategies for improving ethical behavior may include consequences (discipline),there is no indication in the stem that the nurse is advocating discipline.Moral conditioning is a distractor choice.
