b. Providing care with a focus on the group’s needs.

c. Giving care with a focus on the aggregate’s needs.

d. A value system in which all clients receive optimal care.

ANS: A

By definition, community-based nursing is a setting-specific practice in which care is provided for “sick”
individuals and families where they live, work, and attend school. The emphasis is on acute and chronic
care and the provision of comprehensive, coordinated, and continuous care. These nurses may be
generalists or specialists in maternal–infant, pediatric, adult, or psychiatric mental health nursing.
Community-based nursing emphasizes acute and chronic care to individuals and families, rather than
focusing on groups, aggregates, or systems.

2. Which statement best describes the goal of community-oriented nursing?

a. Providing care to individuals and families

b. Providing care to manage acute or chronic conditions

c. Giving direct care to ill individuals within their family setting

d. To preserve, protect, promote, or maintain health and prevent disease

ANS: D

By definition, community-oriented nursing has the goal of preserving, protecting, or maintaining health
and preventing disease to promote the quality of life. All nurses may focus on individuals and families,
give direct care to ill persons within their family setting, and help manage acute or chronic conditions.
These definitions are not specific to community-oriented nursing.

3. Which of the following is the primary focus of public health nursing?

a. Families and groups

b. Illness-oriented care
