Question 1 of 5
Which health promotion intervention should the community health nurse teach to new parents to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Place the baby on a firm sleep surface. This is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics to reduce the risk of SIDS. Firm surfaces prevent suffocation and provide a safe sleep environment for infants. Option A may not directly impact SIDS risk. Option C increases the risk of suffocation and SIDS. Option D increases the risk of overheating and suffocation.
Question 2 of 5
The community health nurse is teaching caregivers with children between 5 and 9 years of age about causes of injury in this age group. Which cause of death will the nurse include?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Drowning. Children between 5 and 9 years are at higher risk for drowning due to their curiosity and lack of proper supervision around water bodies. Drowning is a leading cause of death in this age group. Suicide (A) is less common in young children due to their cognitive development. Choking (B) is a concern but is more common in younger children. Illegal drugs (D) are not typically a significant cause of death in this age group. Therefore, drowning is the most relevant cause of death to include in teaching caregivers of children aged 5 to 9 years.
Question 3 of 5
Which condition would the school nurse tell caregivers of adolescents is a protective relationship factor that can protect against suicide?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Family support. Family support is a protective factor against suicide in adolescents because it provides emotional stability, communication, and a sense of belonging. Adolescents with strong family support are more likely to seek help and share their feelings, reducing the risk of suicide. Social media (A) can have negative effects on mental health, increasing feelings of isolation and inadequacy. Peer pressure (C) can exacerbate stress and lead to risky behaviors. Community suicide clusters (D) can normalize suicidal behavior and increase the risk of contagion. In summary, family support fosters resilience and emotional well-being, making it a crucial protective factor against suicide in adolescents.
Question 4 of 5
Which health disparity would the public health nurse apply when developing community adult health education programs?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because women having a higher mortality rate compared to men is a significant health disparity that needs to be addressed in community adult health education programs. This is because addressing this disparity can help improve overall health outcomes and reduce preventable deaths among women. A is incorrect because it states the opposite of the reality where women generally have a higher life expectancy compared to men. B is incorrect as cerebrovascular disease rates are generally higher in men. D is incorrect as COPD rates are higher in men compared to women. In summary, option C is the correct choice as it addresses a critical health disparity that needs attention in community health programs, while the other options provide incorrect information or focus on disparities that are not as relevant in this context.
Question 5 of 5
The community health nurse is developing a primary prevention program for children. Which intervention would the nurse promote?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Immunizations according to recommended schedules. This is the most appropriate primary prevention intervention for children as immunizations help prevent the occurrence and spread of infectious diseases. Immunizations are a cost-effective strategy to protect children and the community from serious illnesses. Regular vision screenings (B) are important for early detection of vision problems but are not considered primary prevention. Speech therapy (C) for children with developmental delays focuses on treatment rather than prevention. Medical care for health problems (D) is considered secondary or tertiary prevention, addressing health issues after they have already occurred.
