Answer to Question 1

D
This patient will benefit from a snack that includes protein and is warm while not providing ex-cessive liquids.

Answer to Question 2

A
Secondary prevention is screening and early diagnosis. It aims to find people with clinical condi-tions that have not yet become apparent to them. Blood pressure screening would fit this descrip-tion. Flu vaccinations and teaching about sun exposure are examples of primary prevention. Fit-ting older adults with glasses is a tertiary prevention.
