Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Hospitals are classified by the services they provide as well as by their ownership. General hospitals admit clients requiring a variety of services, such as medical, surgical, obstetric, pediatric, and psychiatric services.
Rationale 2: Hospitals are classified by the services they provide as well as by their ownership. Some hospitals offer only specialty services, such as psychiatric or pediatric. This does not describe the facility in this scenario.
Rationale 3: Hospitals are classified by the services they provide as well as by their ownership. Long-term care hospitals provide services for longer periodssometimes years or for the remainder of the client's life. This does not describe the facility in the scenario.
Rationale 4: Acute care (or short-term) hospitals provide assistance to clients whose illness and need for hospitalization are relatively short term, such as several days. This does not describe the facility in the stem.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Health promotion programs address nutrition, weight control, exercise, and stress reduction. Health promotion activities emphasize the role of clients in maintaining their own health and provide encouragement in maintaining the highest level of wellness they can achieve.
Rationale 2: Providing immunization clinics is an example of illness prevention, not health promotion.
Rationale 3: Evaluating industrial centers for pollution is an example of illness prevention, not health promotion.
Rationale 4: Teaching smoking cessation classes is an example of illness prevention, not health promotion.
