How does a nurse determine which strategy would best enable the targeted individuals to gain more control over, and improve, their health? 

When determining which strategy would best enable targeted individuals to gain more control over, and improve, their health a nurse should first identify the individual’s goals and needs. This can be done by assessing what their current lifestyle habits are as well as any other factors that may be impacting their overall wellbeing (e.g., poverty or lack of access to resources).

Once these areas have been identified the nurse can then focus on creating an appropriate plan which takes into account the individual’s unique circumstances while also being mindful of any potential barriers they may face when it comes to achieving these objectives – such as limited funds for purchasing healthy foods or time restraints due to working multiple jobs.

From there, nurses need to collaborate with other professionals such as dietitians or exercise physiologists in order to design tailored interventions which will help empower individuals with the tools necessary for making positive changes in their lives. Furthermore, providing additional education about healthy lifestyles and providing emotional support throughout this process can go a long way towards ensuring success – allowing patients to lead healthier lives ultimately.
