Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Although any response could be the basis of a program, the program should address the needs of the local faith community. Educational efforts are planned on the basis of the church community's priorities consistent with Healthy People 2020 objectives. Because the faith community membership includes people across the life span, church-based educational programs can address all 10 major health indicators. Early in the development of a parish nurse program, and periodically thereafter, the parish nurse should assess the health status and needs of the congregation members to determine educational priorities.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Certified home health agencies meet federal standards; therefore they are able to receive Medicare payments for services provided to eligible individuals. Not all home health agencies are certified.
