Explanation / Answer

36. B is the answer. Sexual abstinence is the best way to prevent STDs. However, for many people it is not realistic.Therefore, education about how to make sexual behaviour safer is critical.

Nurses should not base assessments on considerations of age,gender,ethnicity or any other factor but should discuss safe sex in all client encounters.

37. B is the answer. Epidemiologic studies enable us to understand the strength of the association between exposures and health effects such as the relation between air pollution and asthma exacerbation.

38. C is the answer. A community nursing diagnosis is the end product of assessments and clarifies who gets the care(community defined), states the community problem or risk and lists the factors contributing to the problem(problem correlates).
