Answer to Question 1

4
Lillian Wald established the Henry Street Settlement.

Answer to Question 2

1
The visiting nurse became the key to health care in urban areas. Although nurses were involved in interventions to improve sanitation and nutrition, they were not instrumental in their construction. Nurses worked in hospitals, but that was acute care. Almshouses and orphanages were not closed down at this time.
