Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 4, 5

Biological determinants of health are typically innate individual characteristics that are less amenable to change by an individual's actions. Examples of biological determinants of health include genetics, ethnicity, sex at birth, and age. Although some biological characteristics can be changed, their influence on an individual's well-being and how they are perceived by other members of society typically requires societal change for acceptance. Social determinants of health include a wide range of factors such as income, employment and working conditions, housing, education, nutrition, social support, social exclusion, stress, and violence.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies are getting increased focus in research and practice as they become a more common choice for many clients. In order to provide comprehensive, individualized care to clients, nurses must be knowledgeable about the modalities that clients are selecting to enhance their health and healing. Sometimes the choices the clients are making to improve their health can actually have detrimental effects on their health.
