Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
A unified program requires collaboration and coordination between the agency personnel who will implement the program. Bringing together the agency and the target population will enhance the success of the new program. Implementing a piecemeal approach minimizes the impact of the program. Allowing plenty of time for publicizing the program is crucial to whether people attend and the programs have an impact. Emphasizing the program itself, not the agency involved, will increase the impact of the program.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
The people of the community need to feel a sense of ownership of the program or event, which can come only with their full participation in the decisions regarding planning as well as their assuming some responsibility for implementation. The profession of nursing is one of nurturing, sustaining, and caring for others. It is part of our profession to do for others what they would do for themselves if they were able. Indeed, most nurses interact professionally with people during an altered health state that requires nurses to do for others, but this is not true in community health nursing.
