Answer to Question 1

27. ANS: B
28. ANS: A
29. ANS: D
30. ANS: E

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Lack of transportation to visits, lack of childcare, and lack of affordable health insurance are prohibitive factors associated with lack of prenatal care. House calls are not a cost-effective approach to health care. Although job training may result in employment and income, the likelihood of significant changes during the time frame of the pregnancy is remote.
