Answer to Question 1

Answer: 1
Explanation: 1. Lillian Wald is the person most closely aligned with population health nursing and coined the term public health nurse. She accomplished many reforms to improve the health of New York and was politically active in lobbying for these improvements in addition to providing nursing care to the immigrant population served by the Henry St. Settlement. All the other nurses worked with Wald at the Henry St. Settlement but branched out to other aspects of nursing and political activism.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Margaret Sanger combined social activism with nursing by providing contraceptive information to poor women. Among population health nursing care, education was always a component in the early efforts of activists like Sanger. Reducing rural childbirth mortality and morbidity rates was done by Mary Breckenridge in the Frontier Nursing Service. Dorothea Dix was an early activist for advocating for the mentally ill.
