Chapter 1 The Journey Begins: Introduction
1. After teaching a group of nursing students about the similarities and differences
between public health and community health, which of the following statements by a
nursing student would indicate knowledge of the similarities and differences between
public health and community health?
A) “Community health nursing is defined as
nursing care that is provided in a community setting, rather than an institutional setting.”
B) “Public health nursing is defined as nursing care that is provided in an
1|Page
, institutional setting.”
C) “Public health nursing is focused on
the health of individuals.”
D) “Community health nursing can shape the quality of community health
services and improve the health of the general public.”
Ans: D
Feedbac
k:
Operating within an environment of rapid change and increasingly complex
challenges, this nursing specialty holds the potential to shape the quality of community
health services and improve the health of the general
public.
2. Which of the following statements would best
describe the difference between public health nursing and community health nursing?
A) Public health nursing is focused on the private aspects of health, and
community health nursing is focused on the public aspects of
health.
B) In our textbook, the term community health practice refers to a focus on
specific, designated communities and is a part of the
larger public health effort.
C) Public health nursing and community health nursing relate to the very same
types of services and perspectives.
D) Both public health nursing and community health nursing are practiced
exclusively within institutions.
Ans: B
Feedbac
k:
In this textbook, community health practice refers to a focus on specific,
designated communities. It is a part of the larger public health effort and recognizes the
fundamental concepts and principles of public health as its birthright and foundation for
practice. Public health nursing is focused on the public aspects of health. Public health
nursing and community health nursing have distinctive types of services and
perspectives. Neither public health nursing nor community health nursing is practiced
exclusively within
institutions.
3. Which of the following is most accurate
about the concept of community?
A) A community is a collection of people
who share some important features of their
lives.
B) Community members live in the
same geographic location.
C) Community members are biologically related.
D) A community is made up of people who do not necessarily interact with one
2|Page
, another and do not necessarily share a sense of belonging
to that
group.
Ans: A
Feedback:
The broad definition of a community is a collection of people who share some
important features of their lives. Community members may not live in the same
geographic location as in a common-interest community or a community of solution. A
population is made up of people who do not necessarily interact with one another and
do not necessarily share a sense of belonging to that
group.
4. A group of students are reviewing material for a test on populations,
communities, and aggregates. Which of the following indicates
that the students understand these concepts?
A) Members of a population share a
sense of belonging.
B) Communities and populations are
types of aggregates.
C) Individuals of a community are
loosely connected.
D) Members of an aggregate share a strong
bond. Ans: B
Feedback:
An aggregate refers to a mass of grouping of distinct individuals who are
considered as a whole and who are loosely associated with one another. Communities
and populations are types of aggregates. A population is made up of people who do not
necessarily interact with one another and do not necessarily share a sense of
belonging to the group. A community is a
collection of people who chose to interact with one another because of common
interests, characteristics, or goals, which form the basis for a sense of unity or
belonging.
5. Which of the following would a community health nurse identify as a
community of common interest?
A) The global community
B) Small rural town in a northern state
C) National professional organization
D) Counties addressing water
pollution Ans: C
Feedback:
A common-interest community shares a common interest or goal that binds the
members together. Membership in a national professional organization is one example.
The global community and a small rural town in a northern state would be examples of a
geographic community. Counties addressing a water pollution problem would be an
example
of a community of solution.
6. The nurse is working with a community of solution. Which of the following
would the nurse expect to find?
A) A health problem affecting the group
3|Page
, B) Common goal binding members together
C) Sharing of a similar goal
D) Locational
boundaries Ans: A
Feedback:
A community of solution involves a group of people coming together to solve a
problem that affects them. A common-interest community involves a collection of
people widely scattered geographically who have an interest or goal that binds the
members together. A geographical community is one defined by its geographical or
locational
boundaries.
7. Which one of the following statements made by a student would the nurse
educator recognize as evidence that a student
understands the health continuum?
A) The distinction between health and
illness is well demarcated.
B) Illness refers to a state of being
relatively unhealthy.
C) The term health is limited to reflect
an individual's state.
D) Treatment of acute conditions reflects
the current focus of health care.
Ans: B
Feedback:
Although society typically depicts an absolute line of difference between being
either well or ill, health is considered a relative term. Thus, illness is viewed as a state
of being relatively unhealthy. Health is typically described as a continuum that involves
a range of degrees from optimal health at one end to total disability or death at the
other. The line of demarcation is not clear. Health applies to individuals, families, and
communities.
Traditionally, most health care has focused on the treatment of acute and chronic
conditions at the illness end of the continuum, but this emphasis is shifting to focus on
the wellness
end.
8. When discussing the concept of the health continuum with a class, the nurse
educator would be certain to include which statement
in the description?
A) Wellness is a relative concept, not an absolute, and illness is a state
of being relatively unhealthy.
B) A client's placement on the health
continuum is static throughout time.
C) Health is best described as cyclic.
D) The health continuum can only be
applied to individuals.
Ans: A
Feedbac
k:
Wellness is a relative concept, not an absolute, and illness is a state of being
