Families who are living in a local shelter state that they fear their children may be subject to abuse from other residents in the shelter. Which solution should the population health nurse recommend for this issue?

1. Restrict who uses the shelter.
2. Have a separate family area in the shelter.

ESSAYBID ANSWER

Answer: 2
Explanation: 2. Families with children residing in shelters are vulnerable to be preyed upon by other subgroups. Having an area in the shelter reserved just for families can help alleviate this concern. Restricting use of the shelter is possible, but not realistic. Searching everyone prior to using the shelter can raise civil rights concerns. Forcing the children to stay with their parents at all times is possible, but is probably not a realistic outcome.
