Public Health Policy Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
A client in a community health center is receiving team-based care for primary care needs and management
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Medical home. In a medical home model, the client receives comprehensive, coordinated, and patient-centered care from a team of healthcare providers, including nurses, social workers, and other professionals. The nurse referring the client to the social worker aligns with the collaborative approach of a medical home. Choice A is incorrect because it does not specify the holistic care approach of a medical home. Choice B, Accountable Care Organization, focuses more on payment and quality measures. Choice C, Integrated Service Line, relates to a specific service area rather than the overall primary care delivery model.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is developing communication materials for a community health program. What action should the nurse take to create materials incorporating the needs of the intended target population?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Correct Answer: D Rationale: 1. Using images and language that represent the target population helps in creating materials that are relatable and culturally sensitive. 2. It enhances understanding and engagement with the content, making it more effective in reaching and resonating with the intended audience. 3. This approach ensures inclusivity and promotes better communication by addressing the specific needs and preferences of the target population. Summary: - Choice A is incorrect as using medical terminology may hinder understanding for the general public. - Choice B is incorrect as passive voice can make the message less engaging and impactful. - Choice C is incorrect as relying solely on social media limits the reach to specific demographics and may exclude others.
Question 3 of 5
When planning a community health program, which is the best method to ensure the target population's sociocultural and linguistic needs are met?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Include community members in program planning and implementation. This method ensures that the target population's sociocultural and linguistic needs are met because involving community members directly incorporates their perspectives and experiences into the program design. By actively engaging with the community, the program is more likely to be culturally relevant and sensitive. A: Incorporating knowledge about the culture into activities is important but may not fully capture the diverse needs and preferences of the target population. B: Hiring an interpreter is helpful for language barriers but does not address the broader sociocultural aspects of the community. D: Ensuring staff are culturally competent is crucial, but direct involvement of community members in planning is more effective in meeting their specific needs.
Question 4 of 5
Which data source would a nurse use to perform an impact evaluation of an existing community health program?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because using participant surveys completed prior to and 90 days following the program allows the nurse to gather data before and after the intervention to measure the program's impact over time. This approach provides a comparison of outcomes and allows for assessing sustained changes post-intervention. Choices A, C, and D do not provide a post-intervention follow-up period of 90 days to evaluate the sustained impact of the program, making them less effective for conducting a comprehensive impact evaluation.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is looking at different tools to communicate efficiently with the community. Which health activity would be appropriate for the nurse to communicate using a billboard?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Increasing community awareness of common health issues. Billboards are effective for reaching a wide audience quickly, making them ideal for raising awareness on common health issues. This activity does not involve providing education to a specific group (A), initiating discussion (C), or recruiting partners (D). A billboard's purpose is to inform and raise awareness, making it the most suitable choice among the options provided.
