D. Government policies that prioritized health promotion over k k k k k k


kdisease treatment k

century were a result of (1) advances in knowledge about the causes of

disease, (2) development of new technologies and pharmaceuticals to treat
k k k k k k k k k k


and cure many diseases, (3) creation of vaccines and environmental

2. What document is recognized as laying the foundation for the transition in

the focus of Canadian health policy from disease to health?
k k k k k k k k k k

k k k k k k k k k k k k k


the Epp Framework were each subsequent to the Lalonde Report.

,3. The Lalonde Report of 1974 is recognized as one of the seminal
k k k k k k k k k k k


publications that has shaped the character and direction of public health
k k k k k k k k k k k


policy in Canada. What change in policy is attributed to the Lalonde
k k k k k k k k k k k k


Report?
k


A. A shift from collective responsibility for the health of Canadians to

kan individual focus
k k


B. A change in focus from the treatment of illness to the promotion of health
k k k k k k k k k k k k k

promote a change in funding, a change to individual responsibility, or a formal
k k k k k k k k k k k k k


recognition of the determinants of health.

4. The publication of the World Health Organization’s Declaration of Alma-Ata
k k k k k k k k k


is acknowledged to be a key event in the development of contemporary
k k k k k k k k k k k k


public health policy. The Declaration prioritized:
k k k k k k


A. collaboration among individuals and health care providers to impact k k k k k k k k


khealth decisions. k


B. increased funding for the education of nurses, physicians, and allied k k k k k k k k k


khealth workers in member nations. k k k k


C. cooperation between developed nations and developing nations to k k k k k k k


keradicate global health inequities. k k k


D. the removal of class-based barriers to health decision making.
k k k k k k k k




ANS: A

Rationale: The Declaration of Alma-Ata called for health providers to work with
k k k k k k k k k k k


people to assist them in making decisions about their health and how to
k k k k k k k k k k k k k


meet health challenges in ways that are affordable, acceptable, and
k k k k k k k k k k


sustainable in the long term. It did not specifically prioritize education
k k k k k k k k k k k


funding, international cooperation, or the removal of class-based barriers to
k k k k k k k k k k


health.

5. A public health worker is participating in the creation of a health promotion
k k k k k k k k k k k k


initiative that aims to address many of the poor health outcomes in a city’s
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k


homeless population. The success or failure of this initiative is likely to
k k k k k k k k k k k k


depend on what factor?
k k k k


A. Accessibility and the perceived credibility of the planned initiative k k k k k k k k


B. The provision of incentives and immediate benefits for participants
k k k k k k k k


in the program
k k k


C. Providing safe and supportive housing for homeless people k k k k k k k


before addressing their health needs
k k k k k


D. Redressing the disparities based on gender, socioeconomic status, k k k k k k k


and education
k k




ANS: A

Rationale: The Declaration of Alma-Ata called for health providers to
k k k k k k k k k


work with people to assist them in making decisions about their health and
k k k k k k k k k k k k k


how to meet health challenges in ways that are affordable, acceptable, and
k k k k k k k k k k k k


sustainable in the long term. In facing the health challenges posed by
k k k k k k k k k k k k


homelessness, it is imperative that programs, policies, and interventions
k k k k k k k k k


ensure accessibility by the members of this population. As well, it is
k k k k k k k k k k k k


necessary to present initiatives in a way that promotes their credibility.
k k k k k k k k k k k


Short-term benefits are not a prerequisite and the resolution of disparities
k k k k k k k k k k


and lack of housing need not precede health promotion.
