Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
The prevention and treatment of HIV is a World Health Organization priority. While MRSA is a focus of health promotion for nurses, it is the CDC that is focusing on reducing occurrence. The World Health Organization has not set natural disasters as a priority because they cannot be controlled, and it is not focused on reducing terrorism; nurses respond to terrorist events when they occur, but it is not a source of health promotion.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
