Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The purpose of including a community assessment in the implementation of the Community Health Promotion Model is to become more acquainted with the multiple biological, behavioral, social, and physical factors that describe and influence health status of residence. The assessment provides the frame of reference for identifying the community's strengths, needs, and resources. The community assessment involves multiple factors, which is more than surveying citizens or asking special interest groups for their opinions. The community assessment has a broad focus, not a narrow focus.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Assessing the community is one of the nine steps of the Community Health Promotion Model. Restructuring public health policy, soliciting consent of all community members, and ensuring high technological access before implementing the plan are not part of this model.
