A windshield survey is a type of community health assessment. The nurse walks or drives through a neighborhood and notes the type of housing available, the presence and condition of recreational facilities, the presence of health care facilities, and places of worship among other items. Types of cars noted in the neighborhood are not one of the assessments.

Answer to Question 2
