Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Reducing breast cancer risk can be accomplished by getting regular exercise, limiting alcohol, and eating a low-fat diet. Performing breast self examinations will not reduce risk but may help women find abnormalities early. Milk intake is not related.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, E
After finishing the exam, the nurse provides the patient with privacy for changing back into street clothes and any needed hygiene material. The nurse also documents the findings and cleans the room before the next patient is seen. The nurse does not simply tell the patient he/she may leave. The nurse should indicate what will happen next before the patient leaves (i.e., providing written material summarizing the visit, scheduling the next appointment).
