Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The nurse prepares for the home visit by reviewing the referral form including the purpose of the visit, the geographic residence of the family, and any other pertinent information.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
It would be fantastic if existing resources already in the community could meet the needs of the faith community within which the FCN is working, but that would be extremely unlikely. The role of coordinator of volunteers includes recruiting, training, and directing volunteers to work with the FCN program or health ministry. The nurse may work with other nurses and lay people within the congregation. The FCN program may encompass all programs related to the health of the church community.
