MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Why is it important for nurses to understand the premises of environmental health?
a. Nurses should be able to assess risks and advocate for policies that support healthy
environments.
b. Toxicologists often consult nurses about environmental pollutants.
c. Pollutant exposures such as lead are reported by nurses to the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
d. Many Americans live in areas that do not meet current national air quality standards.



ANS: A
Potential risks to health are concerns for professional nurses. It is the responsibility of the
nurse to understand as much as possible about these risks: how to assess them, how to
eliminate/reduce them, how to communicate and educate about them, and how to advocate
for policies that support healthy environments. Toxicologists do not often consult nurses
about environmental pollutants. Pollutant exposures are not routinely reported by nurses.
Although there may be problems with air quality standards in the United States, this would
not be the primary reason why nurses should understand environmental health.
