Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The first step of the community assessment is to define the community. In order to do this, geo-graphic boundaries, the population within the boundaries, the purpose of the assessment, and a data collection plan will be identified. Those inhabiting the community are a primary focus of the assessment. A variety of strategies are used to identify this central core of the community. The next step involves gathering and generating data to learn more about the community. After the community has been completely assessed then nursing diagnoses can be formulated, interventions planned, and finally interventions evaluated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Primary data includes using informant interviews, focus groups, and participant observation in order to collect information about a community. Spatial data involves looking at the locations of places within the community. Photovoice, also called photo elicitation, is a community assess-ment technique in which community members take photos to represent a topic or theme about community health. Secondary sources include published data about the community, such as cen-sus data.
