Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A nurse should also consider personal interests and strengths in selecting an aggregate for intervention. For example, the nurse should consider whether he or she has an interest in teaching health promotion and preventive health or in planning for organizational change, whether his or her communication skills are better suited to large or small groups, and whether he or she has a preference for working with the elderly or with children. Thoughtful consideration of these and other variables will facilitate assessment and planning. After self-reflection, the nurse will need to determine the setting of the aggregate, consider how to gain access, and identify the community resources available.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Identifying risk factors is critical to creating or discovering specific prevention and intervention approaches that reduce chronic disease morbidity and mortality. Because some risk factors cannot be avoided, knowing other risk factors involved allows for more possibilities of preventing the problem. These variables need to be identified first so that health care providers are able to provide an explanation to persons as to why they are ill, obtain funding for research for the problem, and educate the community about the avoidance of the known risk factors.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.

Pink eye is a term that refers to conjunctivitis, which is inflammation of the thin, clear membrane (conjunctiva) over the white part of the eye (sclera). It may be triggered by a virus, bacteria, or foreign body in the eye. Antibiotic eye drops alleviate bacterial conjunctivitis, and antihistamine allergy pills or eye drops help control allergic conjunctivitis symptoms.
