During the years 2015 to 2020, in a particular district, 1,000 of 10,000 girls aged 16 to 18 years tested positive for a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Of the 1,000 diagnosed STIs, 300 were gonorrhea and 500 were chlamydia. Which statement would the community health nurse (CHN) recognize as being true?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because it correctly states that the proportion of chlamydia cases to all STIs was 500:1. This is calculated by dividing the number of chlamydia cases (500) by the total number of STI cases (1,000). This ratio accurately reflects the relationship between chlamydia cases and total STI cases within the given data. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly states that the proportion of gonorrhea cases to all STIs was 300:1. This ratio is inaccurate and does not reflect the actual data provided. Choices B and C are not provided, but they would be incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the proportion of chlamydia cases to total STI cases as required by the question.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Correct Answer: C Rationale: 1. Overt racism involves explicit discrimination and hostility towards individuals based on their race. 2. Participating in hate crimes directly targets and harms individuals because of their race, hence exemplifying overt racism. 3. Using traditional food and dress (A) and restricting the burning of sweet grass (B) are cultural practices, not acts of overt racism. 4. Making job positions available only to Canadian-born individuals (D) is discriminatory, but it does not involve direct harm or hatred based on race.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because, statistically, females typically have a higher life expectancy than males due to various factors such as genetic, hormonal, and lifestyle differences. In this case, First Nations, Métis, and Inuit females would have the highest life expectancy among the given groups. In contrast, choices A and C involve males, who generally have lower life expectancies. Choice B, while also referring to Inuit individuals, specifies females, making it a closer contender but still less likely to have the highest life expectancy compared to the combined group in choice D.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because starting a rehabilitation clinic for middle-aged adults residing in low-income housing represents secondary prevention. This service aims to detect and treat health issues early to prevent the progression of diseases. It focuses on individuals who already have risk factors or early signs of a disease. Administering the influenza vaccine (A) is an example of primary prevention, aiming to prevent the initial occurrence of a disease. Initiating an infant car seat safety screening program (B) falls under primary prevention as well, aiming to prevent injuries. Setting up a support group for teenage mothers (D) is more of a tertiary prevention approach, focusing on managing and improving outcomes for individuals already affected by a condition.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Primary prevention. In this scenario, the CHN is focusing on preventing a disaster from occurring by participating in the development of a disaster management plan. Primary prevention aims to prevent the occurrence of a health problem before it happens. Secondary prevention focuses on early detection and treatment, while tertiary prevention involves managing the consequences of a health problem. Choice B, secondary prevention, would involve actions taken after a disaster has occurred to prevent further harm. Choice C, tertiary prevention, would involve actions taken to minimize the impact of a disaster that has already happened. Choice D is incorrect because the CHN's involvement in developing a disaster management plan specifically aligns with primary prevention efforts.
