Answer to Question 1

A
In community health nursing, the focus is on groups rather than on individuals and consideration is given to health promotion and wellness concepts for entire populations of individuals. When formulating nursing diagnoses, the nurse takes into consideration both health promotion and illness prevention for populations, as well as diagnoses aimed at illness management for the health of the community.

Answer to Question 2

D
The goal of parish nursing is not to provide home health care services but to provide counseling, education, screening, and advocacy. In addition, parish nurses can coordinate volunteers, develop support groups, and make referrals to appropriate community resources.
