Healthy People 2030 Questions
Question 1 of 5
How would the community health nurse demonstrate the public health nursing practice
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because public health nursing practice involves assessing the needs of the community as a whole and providing care based on those needs. This includes conducting community assessments to understand the population's health issues and developing interventions to address them. Choice A is vague and does not address the core principles of public health nursing. Choice C is incorrect as public health nursing is a recognized specialty within the nursing profession. Choice D is incorrect because public health nursing practice is collaborative and involves working with the community to identify and address its needs, rather than deciding independently.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse in a community clinic is assessing an older client for manifestations of dehydration. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Furrows in the tongue. Dehydration can lead to dry mouth and decreased saliva production, causing the tongue to develop furrows. Edema (A) is a sign of fluid retention, opposite of dehydration. Bounding pulses (C) are associated with fluid overload, not dehydration. Healthy skin (D) is a general indicator of good overall health and does not specifically point to dehydration. In summary, furrows in the tongue are a direct manifestation of dehydration, while the other choices are more indicative of fluid overload or general health status.
Question 3 of 5
Which nurse most likely kept records on sanitation techniques and the effects on health?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Florence Nightingale is the correct answer because she is widely recognized as the pioneer of modern nursing and a prominent advocate for sanitation practices. She implemented meticulous record-keeping on sanitation techniques and their impact on health outcomes during the Crimean War. This data-driven approach led to significant improvements in patient care and reduced infection rates. Lillian Wald and Mary Brewster were also influential nurses, but they are not specifically known for their focus on sanitation techniques and health effects. Oprah, on the other hand, is not a nurse and is not associated with healthcare or nursing practices.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse caring for 2 clients with communicable diseases. Following the diagnosis and treatment of these clients. Which action should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Notify the state health department. This is crucial to prevent the spread of communicable diseases in the community. By reporting to the state health department, proper protocols can be implemented to contain and manage the diseases effectively. Keeping it a secret (A) is unethical and can lead to further spread. Only telling family members (B) is not sufficient as it does not address the public health concern. Option D is incomplete, making it incorrect. Reporting to the state health department is the appropriate action to ensure public health and safety.
Question 5 of 5
A community health nurse has completed a community assessment and is now writing a community nursing diagnosis for the problem. Which component of the diagnosis will be used to summarize the assessment data of the problem?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B - Identification of the health risk. This component is used to summarize the assessment data by pinpointing the specific health risk or problem identified in the community. It helps in focusing on the primary issue that needs intervention. Choice A, Identify Needs, is too broad and does not specify the actual health risk. Choice C, Identify community, is essential but does not directly address summarizing the assessment data related to the problem. Choice D is incomplete, so it cannot be the correct answer. Therefore, B is the most appropriate choice for summarizing the assessment data effectively.
