1. Which of the following best describes community-based nursing?
g g g g g g g

a. A practice in which care is provided for individuals and families
g g g g g g g g g g

b. Providing care with a focus on the group’s needs g g g g g g g g

c. Giving care with a focus on the aggregate’s needs
g g g g g g g g

d. A value system in which all clients receive optimal care
g g g g g g g g g

ANS: A g

By definition, community-based nursing is a setting-specific practice in which care is
g g g g g g g g g g g

provided for ―sick‖ individuals and families where they live, work, and attend school. The
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

emphasis is on acute and chronic care and the provision of comprehensive, coordinated, and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

continuous care. These nurses may be generalists or specialists in maternal–infant, pediatric,
g g g g g g g g g g g g

adult, or psychiatric mental health nursing. Community-based nursing emphasizes acute and
g g g g g g g g g g g

chronic care to individuals and families, rather than focusing on groups, aggregates, or
g g g g g g g g g g g g g

systems.

g g g g g g g g

ANS: D g

By definition, community-oriented nursing has the goal of preserving, protecting, or
g g g g g g g g g g

maintaining health and preventing disease to promote the quality of life. All nurses may focus
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

on individuals and families, give direct care to ill persons within their family setting, and help
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

manage acute or chronic conditions. These definitions are not specific to community-oriented
g g g g g g g g g g g g

nursing.

g g g g g g g g g g g

a. Families and groups g g

b. Illness-oriented care g

c. Individuals within the family unit g g g g

d. Health care of communities and populations
g g g g g

ANS: D g

In public health nursing the primary focus is on the health care of communities and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

populations rather than on individuals, groups, and families. The goal is to prevent disease and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

preserve, promote, restore, and protect health for the community and the population within it.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

Community-based nurses deal primarily with illness-oriented care of individuals and families
g g g g g g g g g g g

acorss the life span. The aim is to amanage acute and chronic health conditions in the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

community, and the focus of practice is on individual or family-centered illness care.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g

20th century?

b. Advances in surgical techniques and procedures g g g g g

c. Sanitation and other population-based prevention programs
g g g g g

d. Use of antibiotics to fight infections
g g g g g

ANS: C g

Improvements in control of infectious diseases through immunizations, sanitation, and other
g g g g g g g g g g

population-based prevention programs led to the increase in life expectancy from less than 50
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

g years in 1900 to more than 78 years in 2013. Although people are excited when a new drug is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

discovered that cures a disease or when a new way to transplant organs is perfected, it is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

important to know about the significant gains in the health of populations that have come
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

largely from public health accomplishments.
g g g g g

5. A nurse is developing a plan to decrease the number of premature deaths in the community.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

g g g g g g g g g g g g

a. Increase the community’s knowledge about hospice care.
g g g g g g

b. Promote healthy lifestyle behavior choices among the community members.
g g g g g g g g

c. Encourage employers to have wellness centers at each industrial site.
g g g g g g g g g

d. Ensure timely and effective medical intervention and treatment for community
g g g g g g g g g

members.
g

ANS: B g

Public health approaches could help prevent premature deaths by influencing the way people
g g g g g g g g g g g g

eat, drink, drive, engage in exercise, and treat the environment. Increasing knowledge of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g

hospice care, encouraging on-site wellness centers, and ensuring timely treatment of medical

6. Which of the following is a basic assumption of public health efforts?
g g g g g g g g g g g

a. Health disparities among any groups are morally and legally wrong.
g g g g g g g g g

b. Health care is the most important priority in government planning and funding.
g g g g g g g g g g g

c. The health of individuals cannot be separated from the health of the community.
g g g g g g g g g g g g

d. The government is responsible for lengthening the life span of Americans.
g g g g g g g g g g

ANS: C g

Public health practice focuses on the community as a whole, and the effect of the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

community’s health status (resources) on the health of individuals, families, and groups. The
g g g g g g g g g g g g

g goal is to prevent disease and disability and promote and protect the health of the community
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

as a whole. Public health can be described as what society collectively does to ensure that
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

conditions exist in which people can be healthy. The basic assumptions of public health do not
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

judge the morality of health disparities. The focus is on prevention of illness not on spending
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

more on illness care. Additionally, individual responsibility for making healthy choices is the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g

directive for lengthening life span not the role of the government.
g g g g g g g g g g g

7. Which of the following actions would most likely be performed by a public health nurse?
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g

a. Asking community leaders what interventions should be chosen
