Read the below case student and answer the questions below.

Linda is a 19-year-old college student. She hadn’t been feeling well so she went to the student health center for a check-up. The student health center performed a couple of tests that showed that Linda was two months pregnant. She also had iron deficiency anemia. Linda explained that, as a college student, funds were tight and she wasn’t always able to afford food. When she did purchase food, she bought whatever she could get the most of for the least amount of money. The nurse provided Linda with a list of resources to continue her medical care, as well as information on food programs available to Linda as a college student, expectant mother, and low-income individual. Before leaving, the nurse gave Linda a bottle of iron-rich prenatal vitamins and information on iron-rich foods. Linda was provided a checklist of calls to make to healthcare providers and assistance programs before her follow-up appointment at the student health center one week later.
