Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Medicaid is a federally funded, state-operated program that provides (1) health insurance to low-income families and (2) health assistance to low-income people with long-term care (LTC) disabilities.
Medicare is a financially funded national health insurance program in the United States for peo-ple 65 years and older.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Community health nursing strives to safeguard and improve the health of populations in the community as well as providing direct care services to subpopulations within a community. Pub-lic 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 care for disease within a community. 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 commu-nity 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 sub-populations within a community. Nurses who become expert 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.
