2. WHICH statement best describes the goal of community-oriented nursing?
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. Providing care to individuals and families dx dx dx dx dx
b. Providing care to manage acute or chronic conditions dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
c. Giving direct care to ill individuals within their family setting
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
d. To preserve, protect, promote, or maintain health and prevent disease
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ANS D d x
By definition, community-
dx dx
oriented nursing has the goal of preserving, protecting, or maintaining health and preventing disease to
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
. All Nurses may focus on individuals and families, give direct care to ill persons within their famil

acute or chronic conditions. These definitions are not specific to community-oriented nursing.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
3. WHICH of the Following is the primary focus of public health nursing?
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. Families and groups dx dx
b. Illness-oriented care dx
c. Individuals within the family unit dx dx dx dx
d. Health care of communities and populations dx dx dx dx dx
ANS D d x
In public health nursing, the primary focus is on the health care of communities and populations rath
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ps, and families. The goal is to prevent disease and preserve, promote, restore, and protect health for
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
lation within it. Community-based Nurses deal primarily with illness-
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
oriented care of individuals and families across the life span. The aim is to manage acute and chron
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx d x dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
community, and the focus of practice is on individual or dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
family-centered illness care. dx dx
4. WHICH of the Following is responsible for the dramatic increase in life expectancy during the 20th
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. Technology increases in the field of medical laboratory research dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
b. Advances in surgical techniques and procedures dx dx dx dx dx
c. Sanitation and other population-based prevention programs dx dx dx dx dx

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

dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ough improvements in (1) sanitation, (2) clean water supplies, (3) making workplaces safer, (4) impr
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
(5) immunizing children, and (6) improving nutrition, hygiene, and housing. Although people are ex

iscovered that cures a disease or when a new way to transplant organs is perfected, it is important to
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ains in the health of populations that have come largely from public health accomplishments.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
, 6. What is the basic assumption stated by Healthy People 2010 as it relates to public health efforts?
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. Health disparities among any groups are morally and legally wrong.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
b. Health care is the most important priority in government planning and funding.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
c. The health of individuals cannot be separated from the health of the community.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
d. The government is responsible for lengthening the life span of Americans.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ANS C d x
The major premise of Healthy People 2010 was that the health of the individual cannot be entirely s
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
he larger community. Public health practice focuses on the community as a whole, and the effect of
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
tus (resources) on the health of individuals, families, and groups. The goal is to prevent disease and d
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
otect the health of the community as a whole. Public health can be described as what society collect
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
nditions exist in WHICH people can be healthy. The basic assumptions of public health do not judge
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
arities. The focus is on prevention of illness not on spending more on illness care. Additionally, ind
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
aking healthy choices is the directive for lengthening life span not the role of the government.
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
7. WHICH of the Following actions would most likely be performed by a public health Nurse?
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. Asking community leaders what interventions should be chosen
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
b. Assessing the community and deciding on appropriate interventions dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
c. Using data from the main health care institutions in the community to determin
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
e needed health services
dx dx dx
d. Working with community groups to create policies to improve the environment
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ANS D d x
Although the public health Nurse might engage in any of the tasks listed, he or she works primarily
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
munity to carry out core public health functions, including assessment of the population as a whole
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx d
health and improving the environment. The interventions of asking community leaders WHICH inter

x dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx d
ate the engagement of the community when making decisions about what the community actually w
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
8. WHICH public health Nurse most clearly fulfills the responsibilities of this role?
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. The Nurse who met with several groups to discuss community recreation issues
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
b. The Nurse who spent the day attending meetings of various health agencies
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
c. The Nurse who talked to several people about their particular health concerns
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
d. The Nurse who watched the city council meeting on local cable television
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ANS B d x
Any of these descriptions might represent a Nurse communicating, cooperating, or collaborating wit
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
roups about health concerns. A major challenge for the future is the need for public health nursing s
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ssive in working collaboratively with various groups in the community as well as professional colle
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
s to deal with barriers to health. However, the Nurse who spent the day attending meetings of vario
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
ost representative, because in public health, concerns are addressed from a broader perspective. In p
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx

dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
te priorities, and watching television (a one-way form of communication) is less effective than inter
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
9. WHICH of the Following best defines aggregate?
dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. A large group of persons dx dx dx dx
b. A collection of individuals and families
dx dx dx dx dx
c. A collection of people who share one or more characteristics
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
d. Another name for demographic group dx dx dx dx
ANS C d x
An aggregate is defined a collection of people who share one or more personal or environmental ch
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
community can be defined in terms of either geography (e.g., a county, a group of counties, or a sta

10. WHICH question asked by a novice Nurse would be the most reflective of an understanding of the r
dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
a. ―WHICH groups are at the greatest risk for problems?‖ dx dx dx dx dx dx dx dx
