1. A home health case manager is charged with identifying opportunities for health
f f f f f f f f f f f f



promotion and illness prevention. The fulfillment of this charge would best be demonstrated
f f f f f f f f f f f f f

f f f f




a. collaborates with a local chaplain to ensure that the spiritual needs of cancer clients are
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f



addressed.
f

Case management involves assessment—in this case, screening—and arrangement for
f f f f f f f f



delivery of services. Primary prevention includes case management to identify at-risk
f f f f f f f f f f f



clients and arrange for services to prevent disease. Through nurse management activities,
f f f f f f f f f f f f



general community deficiencies in the quality or quantity of health services are often
f f f f f f f f f f f f f



discovered. Case management activities with individual clients and families will reveal the
f f f f f f f f f f f f



broader picture of health services in and health status of the community. Community
f f f f f f f f f f f f f



assessment, policy development, and assurance activities that frame the core functions of
f f f f f f f f f f f f



public health actions are often the logical next step in the nurse case manager's practice to
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f



intervene at the community level to make changes. Therefore, the core components of case
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f



management and the nursing process are complementary. The nursing process function of
f f f f f f f f f f f f



assessment is complementary to the case management process function of case finding
f f f f f f f f f f f f



and includes such activities as applying screening tools according to program goals and
f f f f f f f f f f f f f



objectives.

lost their home and their best friend in the tornado. The best intervention would include:
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




a. assessment of the family's home environment to rule out safety issues.
