1. At |an |international |nursing |conference, |many |discussions |and |breakout |sessions |focused
on |the |World |Health |Organization |(WHO) |views |on |health. |Of |the |following |comments
|



made |by |nurses |during |a |discussion |session, |which |statements |would |be |considered |a
|



| good |representation |of |the |WHO |definition? | Select |all |that |apply.
A) Interests |in |keeping |the |elderly |population |engaged |in |such |activities |as |book
reviews |and |word |games |during |social |time
|



B) Increase |in |the |number |of |chair |aerobics |classes |provided |in |the |skilled |care
facilities
|



C) Interventions |geared |toward |keeping |the |elderly |population |diagnosed |with
|diabetes |mellitus |under |tight |blood |glucose |control |by |providing |in-home |cooking
classes
|



D) Providing |transportation |for |renal |dialysis |patients |to |and |from |their |hemodialysis
sessions
|



E) Providing |handwashing |teaching |sessions |to |a |group |of |young |children
ANSWER: | A, |B, |C, |E
|



Feedback:
The |WHO |definition |of |health |is |defined |as |“a |state |of |complete |physical, |mental, |and
social |well-being |and |not |merely |the |absence |of |disease |and |infirmity.” |Engaging |in |book
|



reviews |facilitates |mental |and |social |well-being; |chair |aerobics |helps |facilitate |physical
|



well-being; |and |assisting |with |tight |control |of |diabetes |helps |with |facilitating |physical
|



well-being |even |though |the |person |has |a |chronic |disease. |Handwashing |is |vital|in |the
|



prevention |of |disease |and |spread |of |germs.
|




2. A |community |health |nurse |is |teaching |a |group |of |recent |graduates |about |the |large
variety |of |factors |that |influence |an |individual's |health |or |lack |thereof. |The |nurse |is
|



referring |to |the |Healthy |People |2020 |report |from |the |U.S. |Department |of |Health |and
|



Human |Services |as |a |teaching |example. |Of |the |following |aspects |discussed, |which
|



would |be |considered |a |determinant |of |health |that |is |outside |the |focus |of |this |report?
|



A) The |client |has |a |diverse |background |by |being |of |Asian |and |Native |American
|descent |and |practices |various |alternative |therapies |to |minimize |effects |of |stress.
B) The |client |has |a |family |history |of |cardiovascular |disease |related |to
|hypercholesterolemia |and |remains |noncompliant |with |the |treatment |regime.
