ANS: r 3 C
Administering immunization for HPV is an example of illness prevention. Although cancer i
r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3
s a disease, it is assumed that a person joining a support group would already have the diseas
r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3
e; therefore, it would be treatment and not disease prevention. Illness prevention activities fo
r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3
cus on avoiding a specific disease. A food diary is a health promotion activity. Teaching a diab
r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3 r3
etic patient about diet is a treatment for diabetes; the patient already has diabetes, so the teac

hing cannot prevent diabetes.

em in the absence of classic signs and symptoms. The novice nurse is inexperienced and relie

s on rules and processes. The advanced beginner focuses on aspects of a situation and is una
