Community Health Nursing Practice Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
The transfer of antibodies from the administration of an antibody-containing preparation such as the COVID-19 immunization is an example of:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Passive immunization involves the transfer of pre-formed antibodies to confer immediate protection, as seen in the administration of antibody-containing preparations like the COVID-19 immunization. This process does not involve the recipient's immune system actively producing antibodies, distinguishing it from active immunization (choice A). Long-lasting immunity (choice B) typically results from active immunization. Natural immunity (choice C) is acquired through exposure to a pathogen, not through the transfer of antibodies. Thus, the correct choice is D: Passive immunization.
Question 2 of 5
According to the Comprehensive School Health Framework of health promotion, what is the correct definition of primordial prevention?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Rationale: Primordial prevention focuses on preventing risk factors before they even develop. This aligns with the idea of promoting healthy behaviors and environments to avoid the emergence of risk factors. Choice A focuses on education, not prevention. Choice C involves screening, not prevention. Choice D aims at reducing complications, not preventing risk factors. Primordial prevention is about addressing root causes to promote long-term health.
Question 3 of 5
From which health care professional is a rural resident with asthma more likely to receive health care services?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Nurse practitioner. Rural areas often have limited access to specialty care, making it more likely for a rural resident with asthma to receive care from a nurse practitioner who can provide primary care services, including asthma management. Nurse practitioners are trained to diagnose and treat common health conditions, including asthma, making them more accessible in rural areas. Incorrect choices: A: Allergist - Allergists are specialists who focus on diagnosing and treating allergies, not all asthma cases require an allergist. C: Pediatrician - Pediatricians primarily focus on children's health, and adults with asthma may not seek care from a pediatrician. D: Pulmonologist - Pulmonologists are specialists in respiratory diseases, often limited in rural areas, making access to them less likely for rural residents with asthma.
Question 4 of 5
What community health nursing intervention would best serve a population that is structurally vulnerable?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because establishing a system of networks allows for a holistic approach to addressing the various needs of a structurally vulnerable population. By referring clients to different services like preventive care, acute illness care, and chronic treatment, their overall health and well-being can be better supported. Choice A is incorrect because it focuses on addressing multiple health concerns when clients present for treatment of an illness, which may not fully address the underlying systemic issues faced by a structurally vulnerable population. Choice C is incorrect as it only provides acute care services and sets up appointments for other concerns at discharge, which may not adequately meet the ongoing needs of a structurally vulnerable population. Choice D is incorrect because referring clients to specialists for specific health concerns may not address the broader range of social determinants of health that contribute to their vulnerability.
Question 5 of 5
During a group counselling session for perpetrators of intimate partner violence, which client statement indicates a lack of insight into his violent behaviour?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because the statement indicates a lack of insight into his violent behavior by attributing the violence to external factors (work frustrations) rather than taking personal responsibility. Choice B shows remorse and acknowledges the harm caused. Choice C demonstrates awareness and a plan for managing anger. Choice D recognizes the link between alcohol and abusive behavior. Overall, A is the only statement that deflects accountability for the violence onto external factors, showing a lack of insight into personal responsibility.
