Answer to Question 1

A, C, E
Feedback:
Nurses can help the nation achieve the 2020 National Health Goals for pregnancy by being certain women receive counseling in nutrition and low uses of alcohol and tobacco before pregnancy so they can enter intended pregnancies in the best health possible. Increasing exercise and reducing work hours are not interventions that would support the 2020 National Health Goals for pregnancy.
