Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Family policy demonstrates a government's understanding of families and its role in promoting their health. Anything that is done by the government that directly or indirectly affects families is considered family policy. It includes more than laws, requirements for immunizations, or Healthy People 2020 guidelines.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The termination phase includes making referrals when appropriate. It also includes decreasing contact with the nurse, extending invitations to the family for follow-up care, and a summative evaluation meeting for formal closure.
