Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
In the intervention of case management, the nurse coordinates a plan or process to bring health services and the self-care capabilities of the client together as a common whole in a cost-effective way. In the intervention of surveillance, the nurse monitors health events through ongoing, systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data for planning, implementing, and evaluating public health interventions. In the intervention of outreach, the nurse locates populations at risk, provides information, identifies possible actions, and identifies access to services. In the intervention of screening, the nurse identifies individuals with unrecognized risk factors or asymptomatic conditions.
