MULTIPLE
CHOICE
1. An occupational health nurse (OHN) works in a state that requires continuing
education units per year for renewing a nursing license. Which course would
probably be most helpful in the role?
a. Diversity and Human Caring
b. Ergonomics and Toxicology
c. Evaluating Risks and Personnel Management
d. Health Assessment and Home Health Care
ANS: B
Any of the programs might be helpful, but only Ergonomics and Toxicology
are inherent in the science needed to function in occupational health.
Evaluating Risks is relevant to the job description, but many OHNs are the
only professionals in the area, so there are no personnel to manage. Health
Assessment is relevant, but rarely would a home visit be made for health care;
rather a referral would be done.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application)
2. Which best explains why job opportunities for occupational health nurses
(OHNs) have continued to expand?
a. Federal legislation has required an OHN at any site with more than 50
employees.
b. Legislation has required employers to engage in certain tasks, and nurses were
the N R I G B. C M
most expert at those S N T O
tasks. U
c. Nurses have done an excellent job of describing the role and its
benefits to the media.
d. Nurses are able to document cost savings to employers.
ANS: D
The cost-effectiveness of providing health care to employees achieved
recognition, and by 1912, following implementation workers' compensation
legislation, 38 nurses were employed by business firms. As businesses seek ways
to maximize the value of their dollars spent on health care services, OHNs and
other health professionals face an opportunity from being able to demonstrate
that cost-effective, quality health programs do improve the health of employees
and their dependents, positively influencing their company’s attempts to control
rising health care costs.

3. Which best explains why occupational health nurses (OHNs) felt a need to
create the Factory Nurses Conference?

groups.
b. Creating their own group would be less expensive to maintain
membership than joining the American Nurses Association (ANA).
c. Funding was made available by large employers for the nurses to meet.
d. Most OHNs practiced alone and wanted to be able to interact with peers.

ANS: D
Few specialties existed at the time the Factory Nurses Conference was created.
Industrial nurses were practicing in single-nurse settings and recognized the
benefit of uniting as a group for the purpose of sharing ideas with peers
practicing in the same nursing arena. External funding was not available. This
group was open only to graduate, state-registered nurses affiliated with the
ANA.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand (Comprehension)
4. Which led to a vast increase in the number of occupational health nurses?
a.Increasing autonomy and salaries of nurses in that role
b.Increasing industrialization of all societies
c.Society demanding improvements in safety for all workers
d.The health of workers involved in manufacturing during World War II was
crucial
ANS: D
Industrial nurses provide health care and make nursing decisions within the
scope of practice determined by state law. The focus of health care for
employees changed as a result of many factors, including the impact of the two
world wars. During World War I, the government demanded health services for
workers at factories and shipyards holding defense contracts. In 1942, during
WWII, the U.S. Surgeon General told an audience of nurses that the health
conservation of the “industrial army” was the most urgent civilian need during
the war. Not all societies have industrialized.

alternative approaches to health care. Businesses, that is, employers, have
consistently fought to keep health care costs down and to maximize the value
of their dollars spent on health care services. Corporations have taken the most
active force in health care delivery in comparison to consumers, health care
professionals, and state legislators.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Remember (Knowledge)
