Jennifer is a community health nurse in a large metropolitan area. According to
the American Nurses Association’s Code of Ethics (2015), community health
nurses must align themselves with public health programs that promote and
preserve the health of populations by influencing
A. socioeconomic issues.
B. psychosocial issues.
C. sociocultural issues. Correct
D. developmental issues.
The Code of Ethics of the American Nurses Association (2015) promotes social
reform by focusing on health policy and legislation to positively affect
accessibility, quality, and cost of health care. Community health nurses must
align themselves with public health programs that promote and preserve the
health of populations by influencing sociocultural issues, such as human rights,
homelessness, violence, and stigma of illness. Directing care toward
socioeconomic issues, psychosocial issues, or developmental issues focuses
on individuals, families, or groups, which in turn contributes to the health of the
total population.

Mary is a nursing student doing her senior project in community health. Part of
her assignment is to conduct an activity that illustrates “social health” within a
group in her community. The most appropriate activity for Mary to organize
would be a
A. neighborhood block party.
B. food bank in a local church. Correct
C. community yard sale.
D. school fundraiser for the school band.
Social health is a positive interaction among groups with an emphasis on
health promotion and illness prevention. The correct choice is a food bank in a
local church because a food program alleviates problems with hunger and
nutrition that affect health. The other options do not relate to health.

It has been estimated that individual behaviors and environmental factors are
responsible for what percentage of all premature deaths in the United States?
A. 20%
B. 40%
C. 50% Correct
D. 70%
According to Elbel (2019), 50% of all premature deaths in the United States are
a result of individual behaviors. According to Mokdad, Marks, Stroup, and
Gerberding (2004), tobacco use leads the list of “actual causes of death” at
almost 20% of annual deaths in the United States.

4. 4.ID: 25512952746
Early public health nurse Lillian Wald and her associates were successful in
addressing health and disease in the immigrant community by
A. supporting political activities to improve social and
environmental conditions of immigrant families. Correct
B. administering bedside nursing care to immigrants and their
families.
C. teaching the immigrant family members to provide health care
in the home.
D. obtaining and administering medications to the immigrants and
their family members.
These early public health nurses saw that neither administering bedside clinical
nursing, including obtaining and administering medication, nor teaching family
members to deliver care in the home adequately addressed the true
determinants of health and disease. They resolved that collective political
activity should focus on advancing the health of aggregates and improving
social and environmental conditions by addressing the social and
environmental determinants of health. Wald and colleagues (1971) impacted
the health of the community by organizing the community, establishing school
nursing, and taking impoverished mothers to testify in Washington, DC.

C. checking the skin of farm workers for signs of skin cancer.
D. identifying and testing individuals exposed to someone with
tuberculosis.
Primary prevention activities prevent a problem before it occurs; an
immunization is given to prevent a disease before it occurs. Secondary
prevention refers to early detection and prompt intervention during the period of
early disease pathogenesis, such as checking the skin for signs of skin cancer
or identifying and treating individuals who have been exposed to contagious
diseases. Aims of tertiary prevention are to keep health problems from getting
worse, reduce the effects of disease and injury, and restore individuals to their
optimal level of functioning. Examples of tertiary prevention include teaching
prevention of complications from disease or referring a patient with a stroke for
rehabilitation.
