Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Outcome health status indicators are used to measure the impact of the interventions on popula-tion health. In this case, a 50-year-old woman receiving an annual mammogram will have an im-pact on the population health when considering those who are receiving the screening. The other examples do not look at population health as an outcome or are not occurring at the individual level.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Compiling recent data from the county health department on child abuse cases is an example of community assessment, assessing needs and data within a community. Community assessment does not happen with an individual. Community assessment must be completed before diagnoses can be developed. Evaluation of services is not part of community assessment.
