Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Not only do nurses often provide continuous care, in some states nurses are trained as sexual as-sault examiners who gather forensic evidence. Nurses provide victims with privacy, respect, and assurance of confidentiality. The nurse would not be providing long-term therapy for the survivor or have the responsibility to find the rapist.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Primary prevention refers to those interventions aimed at preventing the occurrence of disease, injury, or disability. Being an advocate for nonviolence demonstrates primary prevention. Sec-ondary prevention refers to interventions aimed at early detection and screening. Tertiary preven-tion refers to interventions aimed at treatment and rehabilitation. Primary care is not a level of prevention.
