Nursing Elites

1. Which of the following is used to monitor specific groups eligible for a particular DOH program?

• A. Family treatment record
• B. Target Client list
• C. Reporting forms
• D. Output record

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Target Client list. The Target Client list is specifically designed to monitor groups that are eligible for a particular DOH program. It helps in identifying and tracking individuals or populations that qualify for the said program. Choice A, Family treatment record, is incorrect because it pertains to the medical history and treatment information of a particular family, not eligibility monitoring. Choice C, Reporting forms, is incorrect as they are used for documenting and submitting information, not for monitoring eligibility. Choice D, Output record, is also incorrect as it refers to the results or outcomes produced by a system, not for monitoring eligibility.

2. A nurse is practicing community health nursing when:

• A. leading a support group for obese adolescents
• B. visiting an old woman in her condominium to change her postsurgical dressing
• C. being in a clinic instructing a couple about newborn care
• D. performing any of these activities

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Correct! Community health nursing involves a broad scope of activities that focus on promoting and preserving the health of populations rather than individuals. This includes leading support groups, providing home care, and educating communities. The other options represent different aspects of nursing care such as home health nursing, wound care, and maternal-child health - which are not exclusive to community health nursing.

3. In the provision of preventive care to workers, the nurse must be aware of biological hazards that are harmful to workers and their families, such as:

• A. bacteria, fungi, and insects
• B. noise
• C. toxic metals, poisonous gas fumes, and dust
• D. stress

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: bacteria, fungi, and insects. Biological hazards in the workplace can include microorganisms like bacteria and fungi that can cause infections, as well as insects that may carry diseases. Noise (choice B) is considered a physical hazard, not a biological one. Toxic metals, poisonous gas fumes, and dust (choice C) are examples of chemical hazards, not biological hazards. While stress (choice D) can be a health concern in the workplace, it is not classified as a biological hazard.

4. In order to establish priorities in planning and implementing the occupational health program, which of the following data will the nurse need?

• A. disease trends, birth and death rates, and social environmental conditions
• B. birth and death rates
• C. disease trends
• D. social environmental conditions

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To effectively plan and implement an occupational health program, the nurse needs comprehensive data, including disease trends, birth and death rates, and social environmental conditions. This holistic approach ensures that the program addresses a wide range of health aspects impacting the target population. Option A is the correct choice as it considers multiple factors influencing occupational health. Choices B, C, and D are each individually important but do not provide the breadth of information required to establish priorities in a comprehensive occupational health program.

5. A unit of Girl Scouts went hiking over Mt. Makiling. While resting, scout Jaymee, 14 years of age, complained of a sudden moderately bearable toothache. In checking their first-aid kit, they found none of mefenamic acid, BUT they luckily chanced upon a home that uses alternative pain-relieving medicinal plants. What would this plant be?

• A. Bawang
• B. Lagundi
• C. Sambong
• D. Tsaang gubat

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, Bawang (garlic), which is traditionally used for its pain-relieving properties. While Lagundi, Sambong, and Tsaang gubat are also medicinal plants with various health benefits, they are not specifically known for their pain-relieving properties like garlic.
