n the World Health Organization (WHO) views on health. Of the following commentsma
de by nurses during a discussionssession, which statements would be considered a good r
epresentation of the WHO definition? Select all that apply.

acilities

s mellitus under tight blood glucosescontrol by providing in-home cookingsclasses
D) Providingstransportation for renal dialysis patients to and from their hemodialysiss
essions
E) Providingshandwashing teaching sessions to a group of young children
Ans: A, B, C, E
Feedback:
The WHO definition of health is defined as “a state of complete physical, mental, and soc
ial well-
being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.” Engaging in book reviews fa
cilitates mental and social well-being; chair aerobics helps facilitate physical well-
being; and assisting with tight control of diabetes helps with facilitatingsphysical well-
being even though the person has a chronic disease. Handwashing is vitalin thespreventio
n of disease and spreadsof germs.
2. A community health nurse is teaching a group of recent graduates about the large vari
ety of factors that influence an individual's healthsor lack thereof. Thesnurse is referri
ng to the Healthy People 2020sreport from the U.S. Department of Health andHuman
Services as a teaching example. Of the following aspects discussed, which would be c
onsidered a determinant of health that is outside the focus of this report?
A) The client has a diverse background by being of Asian and Native American des
cent and practices various alternative therapies to minimize effects of stress.
B) The client has a family history of cardiovascular disease related to hyperchol
esterolemia and remains noncompliantswith the treatment regime.
C) The client has asgood careerswith exceptional preventative health care benefits.
D) The client lives in an affluent, clean, suburban community with access tosmanyh
ealthscare facilities.
Ans: B
Feedback:
In Healthy People 2020, the focus is to promote goodshealth to all (such as using alternati
ve therapies to minimize effects of stress); achieving health equity and promoting health f
or all (which includes having good health caresbenefits); and promoting good health (whi
ch includes living insa clean community with good access tohealthscare). A client's nonco
mpliance with treatments to control high cholesterol levelswithin the presence of a family
history of CV disease does not meet the “attaining lives free of preventable disease andspr
emature death” determinant.
