Test Bank Community Health Education Nies: Community/Public Health
Nursing, 7th Edition
MULTIPLE
CHOICE
1. A nurse has instructed a client several times what he needs to do to get better,
but the client has not followed these instructions. Which offers the best
explanation for this behavior?
a. Barriers prevent action.
b. The client does not understand.
c. The client does not really care.
d. Barriers prevent desire to change.
ANS: A
Often the patient is blamed and labeled as being noncompliant. It is more
helpful to wonder what barriers interfered with the patient’s ability to engage in
appropriate action. It is unlikely that the client doesn’t understand or doesn’t
care, rather the barriers are preventing action from being taken. Barriers may
prevent the change, but not necessarily the desire to change.

suggested by Nightingale?

are working.
b. Develop an open and trusting relationship with participants.
c. Distribute evaluation materials to participants.
d. Greet each participant and welcome him or her to the event.

At the core of health education is the development of trusting relationships

a.It provides a way to reinforce voluntary behavior changes.
b.Health education is an area that has desperately needed improvement.

behavior conducive to health. Health education is unable to prevent disease from
occurring, and it is not the most cost-effective way to improve health.

used?
a. Ask the formal leadership of a community what the learning needs are.

c. Use the expertise of professional nurses skilled at assessing needs.
d. The target audience must determine their needs and priorities.

Learners must be involved in determining their own health education needs
and priorities. Both the formal and informal leadership would have useful
information to share, but the crucial component is input from the target
group.
