Community Health HESI Practice Exam Questions
Question 1 of 5
What does the nurse perform to determine the family nursing problems/needs?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: assessment. Assessment is the initial step in identifying family nursing problems/needs. During assessment, the nurse collects data to understand the family's health status, strengths, weaknesses, and potential areas for intervention. This process helps in developing an accurate picture of the family's situation. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because goal setting, family health care plan formulation, and evaluation come after the assessment phase. Goal setting occurs once the issues are identified, the family health care plan is developed based on assessment findings, and evaluation is the final step to assess the effectiveness of the interventions implemented.
Question 2 of 5
With the present system, family planning programs at the municipal barangay levels are managed by:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because family planning programs at the municipal barangay levels are managed by a combination of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), Local Government Units (LGUs), and other government organizations. Therefore, all these units/organizations are involved in managing family planning programs. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they individually do not capture the full scope of the entities involved in managing family planning programs at the specified levels.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is conducting a process evaluation of a prevention education program for older adults who are at risk for substance abuse. Which data source provides the information the nurse needs to conduct this process evaluation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Correct! Documentation of client education in the nursing record is the most appropriate data source for conducting a process evaluation of a prevention education program. This documentation provides insight into the educational process, its implementation, and the quality of education delivered. Choices A and B focus on assessing the clients directly for substance abuse, which is different from evaluating the educational process. Choice C, the most recent community census data, is not directly related to evaluating the specific prevention education program for older adults at risk for substance abuse.
Question 4 of 5
The home health care agency can expect to obtain Medicare reimbursement for which home visit performed by a registered nurse or a practical nurse?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because wound care for a postoperative infection qualifies for Medicare reimbursement. Medicare typically covers skilled nursing care, like wound care, required due to a postoperative infection. Choices A, B, and D involve assessments, teaching, and evaluation, which may not always be eligible for Medicare reimbursement unless they are directly related to skilled nursing care for a specific medical condition.
Question 5 of 5
What title should be given to this role in the occupational health nurse job description? A registered nurse who teaches and prepares nursing students to function as expert clinicians/practitioners, administrators, educators, researchers, or consultants at the work site.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct title for the role described in the job description is a health educator. A health educator is responsible for teaching and preparing nursing students for various professional roles. Choice A, researcher, is incorrect because the main focus in the job description is on teaching and preparing students, not conducting research. Choice B, case manager, does not align with the role of teaching and preparing nursing students. Choice D, health promotion specialist, is also not the best fit as the primary focus in the job description is on education and preparation, rather than promoting health within a specific population.
