communities. It is a part of the larger public health effort and recognizes the
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1
fundamental concepts and principles of public health as its birthright and foundation
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1
for practice. Public health nursing is focused on the public aspectsof health. Public
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1
health nursing and community health nursing have distinctive types of services and
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1
perspectives. Neither public health nursing nor community health nursing is practiced
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1
