Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Screening is performed at the secondary level of prevention. Developing policies and procedures for referral programs is at the primary level of prevention. Serving as a chair to organize a small-pox vaccination program and monitoring implementation of performance-improvement activities are at the tertiary level of prevention.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The first step is the initial contact with the client. This is made when the client or someone in a family, group, agency, or community communicates with the nurse about a potential problem that requires intervention. After this has happened, a contract will be agreed upon that includes nego-tiating for fees as needed, collecting the data, and finally applying the interventions.
