By definition, community-based nursing is a setting-specific practice in which care is
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




provided for ―sick‖ individuals and families where they live, work, and attend school.
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




The emphasis is on acute and chronic care and the provision of comprehensive,
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




coordinated, and continuous care. These nurses may be generalists or specialists in maternal–
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g




infant, pediatric, adult, or psychiatric mental health nursing. Community-based nursing
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




emphasizes acute and chronic care to individuals and families, rather than focusing on
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




groups, aggregates, or systems.

By definition, community-oriented nursing has the goal of preserving, protecting, or
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




maintaining health and preventing disease to promote the quality of life. All nurses may
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




focus on individuals and families, give direct care to ill persons within their family setting,

and help manage acute or chronic conditions. These definitions are not specific to

d. Health care of communities and populations b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g

b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




populations rather than on individuals, groups, and families. The goal is to prevent disease
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




and preserve, promote, restore, and protect health for the community and the population
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




within it. Community-based nurses deal primarily with illness-oriented care of individuals
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




and families across the life span. The aim is to manage acute and chronic health conditions
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




in the community, and the focus of practice is on individual or family-centered illness care.

There has to be indisputable evidence collected over time that public health policies and
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




programs were primarily responsible for increasing the average life span from 47 in 1900 to

about the significant gains in the health of populations that have come largely from

public health accomplishments.

b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




efforts?

b. Health care is the most important priority in government planning and funding.

c. The health of individuals cannot be separated from the health of the community.

d. The government is responsible for lengthening the life span of Americans.
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g




ANS: C b - g




The major premise of Healthy People 2010 was that the health of the individual cannot be
b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




entirely separate from the health of the larger community. Public health practice focuses on
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




the community as a whole, and the effect of the community‗s health status (resources) on
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




the health of individuals, families, and groups. The goal is to prevent disease and disability
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




and promote and protect the health of the community as a whole. Public health can be
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




described as what society collectively does to ensure that conditions exist in which
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




people can be healthy. The basic assumptions of public health do not judge the morality
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




of health disparities. The focus is on prevention of illness not on spending more on
g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




illness care.
g b-g




Additionally, individual responsibility for making healthy choices is the directive for b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-g b-




lengthening life span not the role of the government.
