Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Community health nurses work with both geopolitical groups (within specific geographic boundaries) and phenomenological groups (who have a common identity based on culture, history, or goals). A particular phenomenological group may or may not have been a planned groupthat is, a group that came together to resolve a recognized common problem or to meet a common goal. However, of all the choices, a group of persons who share a common identity (phenomenological group) and environment (which implies a specific geographic setting) is the broadest and most complete definition.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Orem's theory is focused on patient-nurse interaction within institutional settings. It assumes that the client can control his or her environment, whereas most persons cannot control work, school, or neighborhood environments.
