Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: A referral source acts as a liaison to other congregational and community resources. Helping new parents find appropriate sources for health care would be an example of a referral source. A health educator supports individuals through health education activities that promote understanding of the relationship between values, attitudes, lifestyle, faith, and well-being. A facilitator recruits and coordinates volunteers within the congregation and develops support groups. An integrator brings the entities of faith and health together.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: An integrated health care system makes all levels of care available in an integrated form, including primary care (education and illness prevention), secondary care (acute care and screening), and tertiary care (rehabilitation and services for the chronically ill). Community-based settings are provided in county and state health departments and may include day-care centers, senior centers, storefront clinics, homeless shelters, and the like. A wellness center provides services such as health promotion, maintenance education, counseling, and screening. Community outreach centers are small, freestanding clinics providing services similar to those traditionally provided by large public health clinics, but focused on a narrower population.
