If you were to summarize the impact of Healthy People 2010: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives on psychiatric nursing and the provision of mental health care, you would most likely say:
 
  A) Healthy People 2010 predominately ignores the importance mental health care needs due to the high cost of established methods of treatment. Consequently, mental health prevention and care will become low-level priorities in the near future.
  B) Healthy People 2010 stresses the need to effectively use inpatient psychiatric hospitalization to treat mental illness in the future so that community health resources won't be depleted to the point that health care needs of other populations are overlooked.
  C) Healthy People 2010 identifies numerous mental health care goals. Psychiatric nurses are challenged to meet these goals within the context of market demands for cost-effective care. Consequently, there is currently more of an emphasis on preventing mental health disorders and a push to use hospitalization only when other forms of mental health services are not effective.
  D) Healthy People 2010 explains the health care agenda of the surgeon general. This document stresses how important it will be for psychiatric nurses to meet the mental health needs of the aging population. In fact, it identifies this need as a top priority because the large number of aging baby boomers will demand the allocation of mental-health resources to this segment of the population.
