Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
By focusing on subpopulations, the community health nurse cares for the community as a whole and considers the individual or the family as only one member of a group at risk. Community health nursing is a nursing practice in the community, with the primary focus on the health care of individuals, families, and groups in a community. Subpopulations are often a clinical focus. The goal is to protect, promote, or maintain health, not to prevent illness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Public health nursing requires understanding the needs of a population. A public health nurse understands factors that influence the political processes used to affect public policy. The primary focus of community health nursing is the care of individuals, families, and groups in the community. By focusing on subpopulations, the community health nurse cares for the community as a whole and considers the individual or family as only one member of a group at risk.
