, Abstract
This comprehensive review document presents 75 examination questions with verified
correct answers and detailed rationales for the NSG 3480 Community Health Nursing
Examination 1 at Galen College of Nursing, aligned with the 2026/2027 academic cycle. The
assessment evaluates foundational community health nursing concepts including the core public
health functions (Assessment, Policy Development, Assurance), the 10 Essential Public Health
Services, and Healthy People 2030 national health promotion goals. Additional domains
encompass levels of prevention (primary, secondary, tertiary) applied to population-focused
practice; epidemiological principles (the epidemiological triangle, web of causation, natural
history of disease, morbidity and mortality measures, study designs, and Bradford Hill causation
criteria); screening principles (Wilson-Jungner criteria, sensitivity, specificity, predictive values,
and USPSTF screening recommendations); communicable disease control (chain of infection,
modes of transmission, herd immunity, immunization schedules, isolation precautions, and
COVID-19 infection prevention); environmental health (I PREPARE assessment,
EPA/OSHA/FDA regulations, vector control); and outbreak investigation methodology. All
rationales cite current evidence-based guidelines, USPSTF recommendations, CDC immunization
schedules, ACIP guidelines, and professional public health nursing standards.
