A mental health nurse is providing preventive care for a group of clients in the community. Which of the following actions by the nurse demonstrates a secondary prevention strategy?
Correct Answer: B

Secondary prevention aims to detect and treat a disease in its early stages to prevent complications. Screening college students helps identify those at risk of developing depression and allows for early intervention.
Choice A involves providing support to clients with an existing condition (schizophrenia and tardive dyskinesia), which is more aligned with tertiary prevention.
Choices C and D focus on training and teaching skills, which are more related to primary prevention efforts aimed at preventing the onset of cognitive impairments or Alzheimer's disease.
