community health needs and connecting communities with available resources.

make healthy choices while working to create environments where healthy
choices are more accessible and affordable. While they do strive to help each
individual who comes for assistance, the main goal is to help the community as a
whole. They also strive to work with all community leaders to achieve the

C. Person is unconscious with signs of internal and external bleeding.
D. Person is conscious with a fracture of the upper arm. - ANSWER-A.
Person is conscious with numerous cuts and bruises that are superficial.
Feedback:A victim categorized as green is experiencing minor injuries and often is
referred to as the walking wounded. Victims in this category have sustained minor
injury or are presenting with minimal signs of illness (e.g., a conscious victim with
superficial cuts, scrapes, and bruises). Prolonged delay in care most likely will not
adversely affect their long-term outcome. A victim categorized as red is
considered urgent or critical and has injuries or medical problems that will likely
lead to death if not treated immediately. An unconscious person with signs of
internal and external bleeding would fit this category. A victim categorized as
yellow or delayed has injuries that will require medical attention (e.g., a conscious
victim with a fractured femur); however, time to medical treatment is not yet
critical. A victim categorized as black is obviously dead or has suffered mortal
wounds because of which death is imminent (e.g., an unconscious victim with an
open skull fracture with brain matter showing). Lifesaving heroics on this group of
victims will only delay medical care on more viable victims.

which issues should be addressed. As the group complete various assessments,
they recognize that an assets assessment will be important to evaluate which
factor of the community?
A. Specific problem of the community

Feedback:An assets assessment focuses on the strengths and capacities of a
community rather than its problems. Key informants are important sources of
information with a comprehensive assessment. Information about a specific
health problem is gathered during a problem-oriented assessment. Information
about an overall view of the community and its life is gathered with a
familiarization or windshield survey.
A community health nurse involved in assessing community health needs is
planning to get a group of approximately 10 similar individuals together to obtain
information about opinions on first pregnancies. The nurse is using which
assessment method?
A. Community forum
B. Focus group
C. Descriptive epidemiology
D. Survey - ANSWER-B.
Focus group
Feedback:The nurse is using a focus group, similar to the community forum or
town hall meeting in that it is designed to obtain grassroots opinion. Focus groups
usually have only a small group of participants, usually 5 to 15 people, and the
members chosen for the group are homogeneous with respect to specific
demographic variables. A survey involves a series of questions, often to provide a
broad range of data. Community forum is a qualitative method to obtain
community opinions; the members typically represent all segments of the
community involved with the issue. Descriptive epidemiologic studies examine the
amount and distribution of a disease or health condition in a population by
person, place, and time.

disaster drills. The community health nurse has a role in these disaster drills
through committee membership, organization of drills at the place of
employment, or activism at the grassroots level to assist in holding community-
wide disaster drills on a regular basis. Assisting with early evacuation and
providing emergency assistance are aspects of secondary prevention.
Implementing crisis counseling would be tertiary prevention.
