Page: Heading: Introduction to Public Health Integrated Processes: Nursing Process Client Need: Physiological Integrity Cognitive Level: Comprehension Concept: Critical Thinking, Promoting Health Difficulty: Easy Feedback 1 The approach cannot be disease based because diseases can affect populations in multiple locations, but the risk factors can be different. 2 Interventions occur after the public health event, and governments can only follow the evidence of public health studies. 3 An epidemic is an occurrence of a disease and has the same limitations as a disease-based approach. 4 PHNs assess risk for disease and other public health issues at both the individual level, so that they can intervene on a one-to-one situational basis, as well as at the population level to identify risk factors beyond the individual level and implement population-level interventions. PTS: 1 REF: 2 CON: Promoting Health | Critical Thinking 2. ANS: 3 Objective: 2. Describe public health in terms of current frameworks, community partnerships, and the concept of population health. Page: Heading: Public Health Science and Practice Integrated Processes: Nursing Process Client Needs: Health Promotion and Maintenance Cognitive Level: Knowledge Concept: Infection; Nursing Roles; Promoting Health Difficulty: Easy Feedback 1 Risk assessment is considered a part of disease prevention. 2 Promotion of primary care occurred through the Alma Ata World Health Organization conference not Winslow’s definition. 3 Health-care providers are an essential component of public health. 4 The goal of public health is to guide governmental policy but not to create regulations.
