Global Health Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which factor should the community health nurse take into account when assessing an individual's social determinants of health?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Level of education. This is because education level is a key social determinant of health that influences access to resources, health literacy, employment opportunities, and overall health outcomes. Genetic influences (option A), exercise habits (option B), and nutritional intake (option C) are important factors for health but are not directly related to social determinants of health like education level. Education impacts various aspects of an individual's life that can significantly affect their health status and well-being.
Question 2 of 5
Which indicator is the nurse utilizing when considering the effects of diseases that people in a population are living with?

Burden of disease encompasses morbidity (extent of illness) and mortality, providing a comprehensive view of the overall impact. It includes factors like disability, quality of life, and economic costs. Morbidity (A) focuses solely on the extent of illness, excluding mortality and other factors. Mortality (B) only considers deaths, not capturing the full impact of diseases. Prevalence (D) refers to the number of cases in a population, but doesn't account for the severity or consequences of the diseases.
