Question 1 of 5
Which fact is noteworthy about adolescent males who are driving without a license in the countryside?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Step 1: The question specifies adolescent males driving without a license in the countryside. Step 2: Choice B is correct because it specifies that they are typically black or Hispanic and live in rural areas. Step 3: This demographic information aligns with statistical data showing higher rates of unlicensed driving among minority groups in rural areas. Step 4: Choices A, C, and D do not specifically address the demographic characteristics of adolescent males driving without a license in rural areas, making them incorrect.
Question 2 of 5
As a concerned citizen and professional, a nurse encourages the local senators and representatives to support expansion of health clinics for the poverty stricken. Which location is in most desperate need?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step 1: Migrant and seasonal farmworkers often lack access to healthcare due to remote locations and lack of resources. Step 2: These workers face occupational health risks and need immediate medical attention. Step 3: Expanding health clinics in rural areas can address these needs effectively. Step 4: Other choices lack the same level of urgency and specific healthcare needs as migrant farmworkers.
Question 3 of 5
Which statement best describes how working on a farm is different from working in a factory?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: The worksite and the home are the same. This is because on a farm, the workers typically live on the farm itself or in close proximity, blurring the lines between work and home. This can lead to longer working hours and less separation between personal and work life compared to factory workers who typically commute to a separate worksite. Explanation for why the other choices are incorrect: A: Factories have more dangerous dust than farming dust - This statement is not directly related to the difference between working on a farm and in a factory. B: Farm chemicals are more immediately fatal than most industrial chemicals - While farm chemicals can be dangerous, this statement does not address the difference in worksite environment. D: Workers on farms, unlike those in factories, can bring dangerous substances home on their clothing, which expose their families - This statement focuses on the potential impact on families but does not directly address the difference in worksite environment.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is explaining why migrant farmworkers experience cultural barriers when trying to receive care. Which would the nurse include in this explanation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because migrant farmworkers are often perceived as outsiders due to their diverse backgrounds. This perception of being different can lead to cultural barriers in receiving care. Choice A is incorrect because eligibility for tax-paid health care is not the primary reason for cultural barriers. Choice B is incorrect as it focuses on social dynamics rather than cultural barriers. Choice C is incorrect as language barrier is just one aspect of cultural barriers faced by migrant farmworkers.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse was trying to decrease the amount of respiratory illness in the community. Which approach should be used by the nurse?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because using informal networks in the community allows the nurse to reach a wider audience and promote preventive measures effectively. By engaging with community members directly, the nurse can provide education, resources, and support to help prevent respiratory illnesses. Choice B is incorrect as it focuses on improving infrastructure within hospitals, which may not directly impact community respiratory illnesses. Choice C is incorrect as advocating for government policy changes is a long-term solution that may not address immediate community needs. Choice D is incorrect as increasing patient education about medication adherence is important but may not directly reduce respiratory illnesses in the community.
