4. Injury prevention.

ESSAYBID ANSWER

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Health restoration strategies may be aimed at preventing a recurrence of poverty and homelessness for individuals, families, or groups of people affected. The emphasis may be placed on preventing the recurrence of health and social problems that result from conditions of poverty and homelessness. Population health nursing involvement in health restoration may entail political activity to ensure the provision of services to relieve poverty and homelessness on a long-term basis. This means involvement by nurses in efforts to raise minimum wages. Prevention strategies for poor and homeless individuals and populations occur at two levels: prevention of poverty and/or homelessness, and prevention of illness and injury among poor and homeless individuals and populations. Health promotion seeks to maintain an overall good level of health.
