Injection drug users are at risk for other health complications. This population represents a rapidly growing source of new cases of AIDS. Emphasis is being placed on reducing the transmission of this disease through contaminated needles.
 
  A community health nurse can provide education about: 1. How and where to acquire safe needles
  2. The proper way to use a needle and possible injection sites
  3. AIDS transmission via heterosexual and homosexual activities
  4. Cleaning needles with bleach between uses and needle exchange programs

Question 2

Asians may perceive illness as disharmony with other forces and that medicine is only able to relieve the symptoms rather than cure the disease. They may look to naturalistic solutions and acupuncture to resolve or cure health problems.
 
  This is an example of cultural variations of: 1. Communication
  2. Space
  3. Social organization
  4. Environmental control
