Community Health HESI Exam Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following would be the best strategy for the nurse to use when teaching insulin injection techniques to a newly diagnosed client with diabetes?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The best strategy for the nurse to use when teaching insulin injection techniques to a newly diagnosed client with diabetes is to observe a return demonstration. This method ensures that the client can correctly perform the technique. Providing written pre and post tests (choice A) may assess knowledge but not application. Asking questions during practice (choice B) may help with understanding but not necessarily with the actual performance. Allowing another diabetic to assist (choice C) may provide peer support but does not guarantee correct technique demonstration.
Question 2 of 5
Which playroom activities should the nurse organize for a small group of 7-year-old hospitalized children?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Sports and games with rules are appropriate for the cognitive development stage of 7-year-olds.
Question 3 of 5
James is an 18-month-old child who has had a cough for 7 days with no general danger signs, a temperature of 37.5°C, and a respiratory rate of 41 breaths per minute. How will you classify James' breathing?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Normal breathing.' A respiratory rate of 41 breaths per minute is considered normal for an 18-month-old child. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because a respiratory rate of 41 breaths per minute falls within the normal range for a child of James' age and does not indicate slow, fast, or very fast breathing.

The PhilHealth Act (Choice A) focuses on health insurance, the Philippine Nursing Act (Choice C) regulates the nursing profession, and the Philippine Medical Act (Choice D) pertains to the medical profession. These laws are not directly related to the integration of traditional, non-traditional, alternative, or complementary health care strategies in community health work.

Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Health activities are structured to enhance communities' autonomy and influence over their health and well-being, aiming to empower them to make informed choices and take control of their health. Choice A is incorrect as health activities encompass a broader scope beyond just preventing exposure to germs.
