Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Windshield surveys are a method of simple observation, providing a quick overview of a com-munity. By making observations of the community, the nurse is completing a windshield survey. Participant observation refers to the deliberate sharing in the life of a community, such as partici-pating in a local fair or festival, or attending a political or social event. A focus group is similar to an interview in that it collects data mainly through asking open-ended questions to participants, but to a small group rather than an individual. An informant interview is a method of community data collection that involves directed conversation with selected community members.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The community nursing diagnosis, no matter which classification system is used, leads to ex-pected outcomes and evidence-based health promotion strategies to address and improve the problem identified in the diagnosis. This becomes the nursing care plan. The expected outcomes and evaluations derived from the nursing diagnosis systems suggest subsequent evaluation measures for identified needs or problems. A community assessment describes the strengths and weaknesses of a community. The likelihood of solving a problem is not influenced by writing a community nursing diagnosis.
