MULTIPLE .CHOICE

1. Which .of .the .following .best .describes .community-based .nursing?
a. A .practice .in .which .care .is .provided .for .individuals .and .families
b. Providing .care .with .a .focus .on .the .group’s .needs
c. Giving .care .with .a .focus .on .the .aggregate’s .needs
d. A .value .system .in .which .all .clients .receive .optimal .care

ANS: . A
By .definition, .community-based .nursing .is .a .setting-specific .practice .in .which .care .is
.provided .for .“sick” .individuals .and .families .where .they .live, .work, .and .attend .school. .The

.emphasis .is .on .acute .and .chronic .care .and .the .provision .of .comprehensive, .coordinated,

.and .continuous .care. .These .nurses .may .be .generalists .or .specialists .in .maternal–infant,

.pediatric, .adult, .or .psychiatric .mental .health .nursing. .Community-based .nursing .emphasizes

.acute .and .chronic .care .to .individuals .and .families, .rather .than .focusing .on .groups,

.aggregates, .or .systems.




2. Which .of .the .following .best .describes .community-oriented .nursing?
a. Focusing .on .the .provision .of .care .to .individuals .and .families
b. Providing .care .to .manage .acute .or .chronic .conditions
c. Giving .direct .care .to .ill .individuals .within .their .family .setting
d. Having .the .goal .of .health .promotion .and .disease .prevention
ANS: . D
By .definition, .community-oriented .nursing .has .the .goal .of .preserving, .protecting, .or
.maintaining .health .and .preventing .disease .to .promote .the .quality .of .life. .All .nurses .may

.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

.community-oriented .nursing.




3. Which .of .the .following .is .the .primary .focus .of .public .health .nursing?
a. Families .and .groups
b. Illness-oriented . care
c. Individuals .within .the .family .unit
d. Health .care .of .communities .and .populations
ANS: . D
In .public .health .nursing .the .primary .focus .is .on .the .health .care .of .communities .and
.populations .rather .than .on .individuals, .groups, .and .families. .The .goal .is .to .prevent .disease

.and .preserve, .promote, .restore, .and .protect .health .for .the .community .and .the .population

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

.and .families .acorss .the .life .span. .The .aim .is .to .amanage .acute .and .chronic .health

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

.illness .care.

, 4. Which .of .the .following .is .responsible .for .the .dramatic .increase .in .life .expectancy .during
the .20th .century?
.

b. Advances .in .surgical .techniques .and .procedures
c. Sanitation .and .other .population-based .prevention .programs
d. Use .of .antibiotics .to .fight .infections
ANS: . C
Improvements .in .control .of .infectious .diseases .through .immunizations, .sanitation, .and
.other .population-based .prevention .programs .led .to .the .increase .in .life .expectancy .from .less

.than .50 . years .in .1900 .to .more .than .78 . years .in .2013. .Although .people .are .excited .when .a

.new .drug .is .discovered .that .cures .a .disease .or .when .a .new .way .to .transplant .organs .is

.perfected, .it .is .important .to .know .about .the .significant .gains .in .the .health .of .populations

.that .have .come .largely .from .public .health .accomplishments.




5. A .nurse .is .developing .a .plan .to .decrease .the .number .of .premature .deaths .in .the
community. .Which .of .the .following .interventions .would .most .likely .be .implemented .by

the .nurse?
.

b. Promote .healthy .lifestyle .behavior .choices .among .the .community .members.
c. Encourage .employers .to .have .wellness .centers .at .each .industrial .site.
d. Ensure .timely .and .effective .medical .intervention .and .treatment .for
.community .members.



ANS: . B
Public .health .approaches .could .help .prevent .premature .deaths .by .influencing .the .way .people
.eat, .drink, .drive, .engage .in .exercise, .and .treat .the .environment. .Increasing .knowledge .of

.hospice .care, .encouraging .on-site .wellness .centers, .and .ensuring .timely .treatment .of .medical

.conditions .do .not .address .the .focus .of .improving .overall .health .through .health .promotion

.strategies. .This .is .the .major .method .that .is .suggested .to .decrease .the .incidence .of

.premature .death.



6. Which .of .the .following .is .a .basic .assumption .of .public .health .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.
ANS: . C
Public .health .practice .focuses .on .the .community .as .a .whole, .and .the .effect . of .the
.community’s .health .status .(resources) .on .the .health .of .individuals, .families, .and .groups.

.The .goal .is .to .prevent .disease .and .disability .and .promote .and .protect .the .health .of .the

.community .as .a .whole. .Public .health .can .be .described .as .what .society .collectively .does .to

.ensure .that .conditions .exist .in .which .people .can .be .healthy. .The .basic .assumptions .of .public

.health .do .not .judge .the .morality .of .health .disparities. .The .focus .is .on .prevention .of .illness

.not .on .spending .more .on .illness .care. .Additionally, .individual .responsibility .for .making

.healthy .choices .is .the .directive .for .lengthening .life .span .not .the .role .of .the .government.




7. Which .of .the .following .actions .would .most .likely .be .performed .by .a .public .health .nurse?
a. Asking .community .leaders .what .interventions .should .be .chosen
b. Assessing .the .community .and .deciding .on .appropriate .interventions
c. Using .data .from .the .main .health .care .institutions .in .the .community .to .determine
