Answer to Question 2

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Promoting maternal and child health is health promotion. The nurse visits the postpartal mother to answer questions, assess how the mother is recuperating, and how the infant is progressing. The nurse performs teaching as needed, which is health promotion and illness prevention. It is not case finding and referral, or care of the sick. Home health nursing is a specific type of home nursing that addresses an illness event.
