Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Nurse centers are positioned to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable populations. One way to achieve this is by providing access to comprehensive primary health care and health pro-motion and disease prevention services. Smoking cessation and weight management techniques focus on health promotion, which address the main focus of the nurse center. Advanced care of the chronically ill and accessing specialty services does not address health promotion and disease prevention services. Providing financial support for nursing students does not address a health promotion and disease prevention topic and does not meet the needs of the broad population that may be served by the center.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The steps of the Community Health Promotion Model are very similar to the nursing process. The steps include assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The collaboration process, WHO's Ottawa Charter, and the CDC's monitoring program do not contain steps similar to the Community Health Promotion Model.
