Public Health Practice Focuses On The Community As A Whole, And The Effect Of The
Community’s Health Status (Resources) On The Health Of Individuals, Families, And
Groups. The Goal Is To Prevent Disease And Disability And Promote And Protect The Health
Of The Community As A Whole. Public Health Can Be Described As What Society
Collectively Does To Ensure That Conditions Exist In Which People Can Be Healthy. The
Basic Assumptions Of Public Health Do NotJudge The Morality Of Health Disparities. The
Focus Is On Prevention Of Illness Not On Spending More On Illness Care. Additionally,
Individual Responsibility For Making Healthy Choices Is The Directive For Lengthening Life
Span Not The Role Of The Government.

7. Which Of The Following Actions Would Most Likely Be Performed By A Public Health
Nurse?
a. Asking Community Leaders What Interventions Should Be Chosen
b. Assessing The Community And Deciding On Appropriate Interventions
c. Using Data From The Main Health Care Institutions In The Community to determine

, needed health services
d. working with community groups to create policies to improve the environment
ans: d
although the public health nurse might engage in any of the tasks listed, he or she works
primarily with members of the community to carry out core public health functions, including
assessment of the population as a whole and engaging in promoting health and improving the
environment. the interventions of asking community leaders which interventions should be
chosen, asessing the community and deciding on appropriate interventions, and using data
from health care institutions do not demonstrate the engagement of the community when
making decisions about what the community actually wants and needs.

8. which of the following public health nurses most clearly fulfills the responsibilities of this
role?
a. the nurse who met with several groups to discuss community recreation issues
b. the nurse who spent the day attending meetings of various health agencies
c. the nurse who talked to several people about their particular health concerns
d. the nurse who watched the city council meeting on local cable television
ans: b
any of these descriptions might represent a nurse communicating, cooperating, or
collaborating with community residents or groups about health concerns. however, the nurse
who spent the day attending meetings of various health agencies is the most representative,
because in public health, concerns are addressed from a broader perspective. in public health,
broad concerns of the community should be addressed. concerns are broader than recreation,
individual concerns are not as important as aggregate priorities, and watching television (a
one-way form of communication) is less effective than interacting with others.

b. a collection of individuals and families
c. a collection of people who share one or more characteristics
d. another name for demographic group
ans: c
an aggregate is defined a collection of people who share one or more personal or
environmental characteristics. members of a community can be defined in terms of either
geography (e.g., a county, a group of counties, or a state) or a special interest (e.g., children
attending a particular school). these members make up a population. the term population
may be used interchangeably with the term aggregate. a large group of persons, a collection
of individuals and families, and another name for demograhpic group are not accurate
definitions of the term aggregate.
