Population and Community Health Nursing, 6e (Clark)
Chapter 1 Population Health and Nursing
1) The nurse is designing a program for pregnant adolescents in the community. The program
will focus on fetal development, appropriate nutrition, developing social support systems, and
screening for potential abuse by partners or others. This is an example of:
1. Community-driven care.
2. Community-focused care.
3. Community-based nursing.
4. Population health nursing.
Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. Population health nursing is the practice of promoting and protecting the health
of populations using knowledge from nursing, social, and public health sciences. The population
will benefit from the program because the adolescents will be healthier and deliver healthier
infants, thus saving on health care costs. Community-based nursing is nurses providing sick care
in community settings. Community-focused care is bringing nursing knowledge and expertise to
the community, but it does not have a population focus. Community-driven care focuses on the
needs of the community as a whole and emphasizes community participation in determining
those needs. It can limit the focus of practice to health needs identified by the population group,
and could thus exclude pregnant adolescents.

2) The nurse meets with members of the community in open forums to help determine ways to
improve health. The nurse identifies health problems in the community based on the community
input and the nurse's community assessment. In this situation, the nurse is practicing:
1. Public-health nursing.
2. Community-driven care.
3. Community-focused care.
4. Community-oriented care.
Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Community-focused care brings nursing knowledge and expertise to the
community. Public health nursing has a perceived focus of environmental sanitation and
controlling communicable diseases. Community-driven care focuses on the needs of the
community as a whole, but can be limited to only addressing needs identified by community
members. Community-oriented care is limited and focuses program development on small
aggregates while potentially ignoring health issues affecting larger population groups.

3) The nurse holds community forums to gain input in determining the health needs for the
community. Issues raised the forum focus on the need for nutrition education, but the nurse
notices that many community members are outside smoking before entering the building. The
nurse acknowledges the importance of nutrition education, but addresses the incorporation of
smoking cessation education as part of a total lifestyle choice program. Which type of nursing is
the nurse implementing?
1. Public health nursing.
2. Community-driven nursing.
3. Population-focused nursing.
4. Community-focused nursing.
Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. The nurse gained input from the community as to their concerns, but also noted
that a health concern was smoking. This is population-focused in that it incorporates other
population health issues based on the nurse's assessment and are not focused solely on the
community's concerns. Community-driven care focuses on the needs of the community as a
whole and emphasizes community participation in determining those needs. Community-focused
nursing is defined as the bringing of nursing knowledge and expertise to the community but such
care may not have a population focus. Public health nursing is indicative of governmental or
official agency oversight and jurisdiction with a focus on control of communicable diseases and
environmental sanitation.
