Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
One of the goals stated in the Healthy People 2020 report is to reduce infections caused by key food-borne pathogens. Providing free treatment to clients with cancer is not a targeted goal of the Healthy People 2020 report, but reducing the number of new cases of cancer as well as the illness, disability, and death caused by cancer are targeted goals. Complete eradication of sexually transmitted infections is not a stated goal, nor is equalizing access to health services.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
If the client is unable to reach the foot board, a foot splint is used. A foot splint allows more variety in body positioning while maintaining the foot in a functional position. If a foot splint or foot board is not available, the nurse can use a pillow and a large sheet. Giving a foot massage or using an adjustable bed or water mattress will not prevent foot drop.
