Answer to Question 1

D
Community health nursing strives to safeguard and improve the health of populations in the community, as well as providing direct care services to populations within a community.
Nurses who become experts in community health practice may have advanced nursing degrees, yet the baccalaureate-prepared generalist also can become quite competent in formulating and applying population-focused assessments and interventions.
Public health nursing focuses on the needs of populations. Community health nursing has a broader focus, with an emphasis on the health of a community. The community health nurse merges public health knowledge with nursing theory. The community health nurse considers the needs of populations and is prepared to provide direct care services to subpopulations within a community.
Public health nursing is concerned with trends and patterns influencing the incidence of disease within populations. A community health nurse may be involved in direct client disease care within a community.

Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A Pacing has to do with the speed of conversation. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the patient's surgery is not an example of an error in pacing.
B Intonation is the tone of voice used. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the patient's surgery is not an example of an error in intonation.
C Discussing follow-up dietary needs immediately after surgery when the patient is experiencing discomfort is an error in timing and relevance. The patient is less likely to be able to pay attention and comprehend instruction when feeling pain, and immediately after surgery, discussing follow-up dietary needs would seem irrelevant.
D Denotative meaning occurs when a single word can have several meanings. The nurse's decision to discuss dietary needs immediately after the patient's surgery is not an example of an error in denotative meaning.
