Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Interventions to initiate or maintain healthy lifestyles must be multifocal. At the broadest level of care (community), nurses work with community leaders, other community residents, and health professionals to plan programs to promote optimal health for the community and its people. The community is the environment for the aggregate and is the system being applied.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The community focus includes the nurse assessing the community for accessibility and adequacy of care to provide treatment for medical conditions. This is the broadest client system as the nurse is examining the neighborhood. Individual focus is looking at individuals, family focuses on families, and aggregates focuses on populations.
