Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Educating both new mothers and their families regarding the signs and symptoms of postpartum stress and depression will facilitate early detection and treatment of the condition. While pre-venting social isolation is important to the prevention of generalized depression, it has little im-pact on detecting the signs and symptoms of the condition. While the video may be informative it is not the most therapeutic option because it lacks interaction between the nurse and the clients. While Option 3 is appropriate in regard to minimizing the risk of developing depression stemming from postpartum stressors, it does not directly impact the identification of the signs and symp-toms of the condition.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Persons who work in dry cleaning establishments are exposed to solvents that may cause derma-titis or liver disease. Asbestosis is more likely to be found as an occupational hazard for automo-bile workers and insulators. Tendonitis may result from repetitive wrist motion as seen in office computer workers. Raynaud's phenomenon may result from vibration as seen with jackham-mer operators.
