Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The WHO adopted a resolution in 1977 accepting the goal of attaining a level of health that per-mitted all citizens of the world to live socially and economically productive lives. This has been adapted to meet the needs of the new century and was deemed Health for All in the 21st Cen-tury. The focus of this initiative is PHC services. The WHO does not prevent outbreaks of dis-ease, prevention, transmittal of disease, or provide humanitarian support.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
It is thought that increasing minority representation in the health workforce not only is a com-mitment to diversity, but also will improve the health care delivery system. Minority health pro-fessionals can be expected to practice in underserved areas at a greater rate and health profes-sionals who share the same culture and language with the clients they serve can provide more ef-fective care. It has been suggested that the number of minority nurses should be representative of the population served rather than there being equal numbers of minority and nonminority nurses. Minority nurses are able to mentor other nurses; however, is not the main reason that there is a focus on increasing recruitment of minorities.
