(5) immunizing children, and (6) improving nutrition, hygiene, and housing. Although people are excit

(resources) on the health of individuals, families, and groups. The goal is to prevent disease and disabil
the health of the community as a whole. Public health can be described as what society collectively doe

Any of these descriptions might represent a nurse communicating, cooperating, or collaborating with c
groups about health concerns. A major challenge for the future is the need for public health nursing spe

settings to deal with barriers to health. However, the nurse who spent the day attending meetings of var
