In 1909, Yssabella Waters published her survey Visiting Nurses in the United States. This document highlighted the fact that:

1. Nurses were trained by Boards of Education.
2. Trained nurses adequately covered less densely populated areas.
3. Visiting nurses services were concentrated in the northeastern quadrant of the na-tion.
4. Nurses were curing diseases such as tuberculosis and typhoid fever that greatly enhanced their credibility.

Question 2

1. Tertiary prevention
2. Primary prevention
3. Secondary prevention
4. Health education
