●● A nurse is recalling the various levels of preventive care to promote
health, wellness, and to prevent illness. Which scenario is a perfect
example of primary prevention?
1
An infant receives rotavirus vaccination in the hospital setting.
2
An adult in the early stages of Parkinson's disease is advised to perform
adequate exercise.
3
An older adult permanently paralyzed due to brain hemorrhage is
transferred to a long-term care facility.
4
An older adult with Parkinson's disease is administered carbidopa-
levodopa to slow the progression of the disease.
Answer: 1. An infant receives rotavirus vaccination in the hospital
setting.
,Primary prevention consists of all health promotion efforts and wellness
education activities. An infant receiving the rotavirus vaccination is an
example of primary prevention. An adult in the early stages of
Parkinson's disease is advised to perform adequate exercises; this is an
example of secondary prevention. An older adult permanently paralyzed
due to brain hemorrhage is transferred to a long-term care facility. This
is an example of tertiary prevention. An older adult with Parkinson's
disease is administered carbidopa-levodopa to slow the progression of
the disease. This is an example of secondary prevention.
Test-Taking Tip: Start by reading each of the answer options carefully.
Usually at least one of them will be clearly wrong. Eliminate this one
from consideration. Now you have reduced the number of response
choices by one and improved the odds. Continue to analyze the options.
If you can eliminate one more choice in a four-option question, you have
reduced the odds to 50/50. While you are eliminating the wrong choices,
recall often occurs. One of the options may serve as a trigger that causes
you to remember what a few seconds ago had seemed completely
forgotten.
