Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Community assessment has been called a critical process for the future that can be used as a means for understanding the interactions between people, health, and environment in a community, as well as finding a way to improve both the health status of at-risk populations and outreach activities.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
It is imperative that healthcare organizations such as hospitals and visiting nurses agencies conduct ongoing cultural assessments of their service areas. Racher and Annis (2007) write that creating spaces for voices to be heard and groups to be represented produces opportunities to break down resistance and facilitate social change. Nurses have both opportunity and responsibility to take action in creating such spaces.
