A community health nurse has determined that the number one priority is to help families in which one
member has diabetes. Which of the following actions would be most appropriate to maximize services
to persons with diabetes?
a. Ask friends with diabetes about what services they want improved.
b. Duplicate the diabetic organization's services, because not all patients with diabetes have yet received
services.
c. Meet with the diabetic organization to see how the public health department can augment what it is
offering.
d. Submit a request for funding so that the public health department can also offer services to patients
with diabetes. - answer✔c. Meet with the diabetic organization to see how the public health
department can augment what it is offering.
The nurse should augment existing resources or create a new service rather than duplicate what is
already available to the aggregate. It is assumed that if the nurse has concluded that diabetic issues are
the number one priority, there is no pressing need to ask specific questions of friends with diabetes.
Which of the following best describes what Lillian Wald suggested in regards to providing care to
individuals and families?
a. Public health nurses should encourage clients to join the Henry Street settlement for mutual growth
and support among the families.
b. Public health nurses should focus on providing care in the client's home.
c. Public health nurses should recognize the larger social and economic forces that the family cannot
control.
d. Public health nurses should try to understand that educating clients on how to stay healthy is the
nurse's primary responsibility. - answer✔c. Public health nurses should recognize the larger social and
economic forces that the family cannot control.
Wald emphasized that one could not understand an individual without understanding the family, and
the family is in the grip of larger social and economic forces that they cannot control. It was not
suggested by Wald that clients be encouraged to join the Henry Street settlement, focus on providing
care in the client's home, or that it was the nurse's responsiblity to keep clients healthy.

Which of the following best describes why it is important for the nurse to be knowledgeable about the
community when providing care to individuals?
a. As nurses travel to meet with clients, they must know the community to find the client's residence.
b. On the basis of information from community assessment, community health nurses can be visible and
vocal advocates for health care reform.
c. Community health nurses are expected to have information about the community to share with
individual clients.
d. Individuals and families are strongly influenced by the community and environment around them. -
answer✔d. Individuals and families are strongly influenced by the community and environment around
them.
The nurse must be particularly aware of how individuals and families are influenced by the community
and environment around them, although it is indeed important to be an advocate for health care reform
and to have information regarding resources available for client services in the process of giving care. It
is assumed that community health nurses can read maps—or use a global positioning system in their
car—to find client addresses.
