Study Notes
Working With the Community
- During the assessment phase of community health nursing, data collection is used to determine the community's health and structure when the community-client is a partner.
- In the evaluation phase, a community health nurse (CHN) determines the ability of specific interventions to achieve a target increase in a health metric, such as the proportion of pregnant women receiving first-trimester prenatal care.
- Objectives for community health nursing should be precise, measurable, and behaviour-oriented, unlike broad goals.
- Vital statistics, including live births and deaths, are used by community health nurses (CHNs) to assess the status of a community's health.
- A community health nurse (CHN) assesses the community's health process by examining the participation of local health care providers in local organizations.
- To find morbidity and mortality information for all regions in Canada, consult the Statistics Canada Web site.
- A community health nurse (CHN) demonstrates the role of a change partner by teaching anger management skills to a group of teens in a halfway house.
- When new mothers in a region avoid breastfeeding due to a lack of knowledge, interventions should emphasize the process dimension, using health promotion as a primary prevention strategy.
- Informant interviews with local community members provide the best key information when assessing immigrant access to regional health care.
- Implementation, the third phase of the community health nursing process, involves performing the work to achieve goals and objectives.
Health Program Planning and Evaluation
- Health program management involves assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating a health program in partnership with the client.
- The ultimate goal of program planning is to ensure satisfactory, comparable, effective, and beneficial health care services.
- When planning a daycare program based on projected increases in older Canadian citizens, the preactive stage is used to assess the needs.
- Criteria for identifying a potential client for a program include biological, psychosocial, and geographical characteristics, along with the problems to be addressed.
- Summative evaluation assesses program outcomes to see if the program is effective.
- If a program meets objectives and receives positive community ratings but is too costly, the program evaluation identifies sustainability as the problem.
- Tertiary prevention is best emphasized by a program that provides diabetes management for persons with diabetes mellitus.
- A Vietnamese community leader would be the best key informant for a committee aiming to improve access to culturally competent health care services for Vietnamese immigrants.
- On a limited budget, community health nurses (CHNs) conducting needs assessments are most likely to eliminate surveys.
- To evaluate an obesity program for school-aged children, it's most important to evaluate if obesity among the school-aged children decreased.
- A community health nurse (CHN) checks the impact of an education intervention program by comparing records of new teen clients seeking contraceptive counselling and management before and after the program.
- Efficiency is the balance between program outcomes and the resources spent.
Working with the Individual as Client: Health and Wellness Across the Lifespan
- Injuries and accidents are the most common causes of preventable disease, disability, and death among children.
- To decrease childhood obesity, interventions need to base on lifestyle changes for the entire family.
- Tertiary prevention includes activities aimed at reducing the complications of the disease process.
- Women's health includes health promotion, health protection, and health maintenance across a woman's lifespan.
- Screening a full glucose tolerance test constitutes secondary prevention by a community health nurse (CHN) who wants to promote improved health in obese women.
