@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


. All Nurses may focus on individuals and families, give direct care to ill persons within their family

ANS D @


In public health nursing, the primary focus is on the health care of communities and populations rathe
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ps, and families. The goal is to prevent disease and preserve, promote, restore, and protect health for t
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


lation within it. Community-based Nurses deal primarily with illness-
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


oriented care of individuals and families across the life span. The aim is to manage acute and chroni
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ommunity, 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 c
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


a. Technology increases in the field of medical laboratory research
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


b. Advances in surgical techniques and procedures @ @ @ @ @


c. Sanitation and other population-based prevention programs
@ @ @ @ @


d. Use of antibiotics to fight infections
@ @ @ @ @




ANS C @


There has to be indisputable evidence collected over time that public health policies and programs w
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


reasing the average life span from 47 in 1900 to 78.6 years in 2017, an increase of approximately 60%
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ugh improvements in (1) sanitation, (2) clean water supplies, (3) making workplaces safer, (4) improv
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


(5) immunizing children, and (6) improving nutrition, hygiene, and housing. Although people are exc

covered that cures a disease or when a new way to transplant organs is perfected, it is important to kn
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ns in the health of populations that have come largely from public health accomplishments.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @

, 6. What is the basic assumption stated by Healthy People 2010 as it relates to public health efforts?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


a. Health disparities among any groups are morally and legally wrong.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


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 @


The major premise of Healthy People 2010 was that the health of the individual cannot be entirely se
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


e larger community. Public health practice focuses on the community as a whole, and the effect of th
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


s (resources) on the health of individuals, families, and groups. The goal is to prevent disease and disa
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ect the health of the community as a whole. Public health can be described as what society collective
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


tions exist in WHICH people can be healthy. The basic assumptions of public health do not judge the
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


es. The focus is on prevention of illness not on spending more on illness care. Additionally, individu
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


@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 determi
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ne needed health services
@ @ @


d. Working with community groups to create policies to improve the environment
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




ANS D @


Although the public health Nurse might engage in any of the tasks listed, he or she works primarily
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


unity to carry out core public health functions, including assessment of the population as a whole and
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


alth and improving the environment. The interventions of asking community leaders WHICH interven

essing the community and deciding on appropriate interventions, and using data from health care inst
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


the engagement of the community when making decisions about what the community actually wants
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




8. WHICH public health Nurse most clearly fulfills the responsibilities of this role?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


a. The Nurse who met with several groups to discuss community recreation issues
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


b. The Nurse who spent the day attending meetings of various health agencies
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


c. The Nurse who talked to several people about their particular health concerns
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


d. The Nurse who watched the city council meeting on local cable television
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




ANS B @


Any of these descriptions might represent a Nurse communicating, cooperating, or collaborating with
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


oups about health concerns. A major challenge for the future is the need for public health nursing sp
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ve in working collaboratively with various groups in the community as well as professional colleagu

@deal with barriers to health. However, the Nurse who spent the day attending meetings of various he
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


presentative, because in public health, concerns are addressed from a broader perspective. In public h
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


@community should be addressed. Concerns are broader than recreation, individual concerns are not as
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


rities, and watching television (a one-way form of communication) is less effective than interacting w
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




9. WHICH of the Following best defines aggregate?
@ @ @ @ @ @


a. A large group of persons
@ @ @ @


b. A collection of individuals and families
@ @ @ @ @


c. A collection of people who share one or more characteristics
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


d. Another name for demographic group @ @ @ @




ANS C @


An aggregate is defined a collection of people who share one or more personal or environmental cha
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


ommunity can be defined in terms of either geography (e.g., a county, a group of counties, or a state
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


children attending a particular school). These members make up a population. The term population m
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


with the term aggregate. A large group of persons, a collection of individuals and families, and anot
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


roup are not accurate definitions of the term aggregate.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




10. WHICH question asked by a novice Nurse would be the most reflective of an understanding of the ro
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ @


a. ―WHICH groups are at the greatest risk for problems?‖
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ @




b. ―WHICH patients should I see first as I begin my day?‖
