Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hypertension is highest in the African American population, making it an important topic to address in a health program for this group of clients. While overnutrition and undernutrition are important issues to address, they are not specific to African American older adults. Iron deficiency anemia is also not unique to this population, and should not be the primary focus of the program.
