• A. Sustenance and strengthening phase
• B. Pre-entry phase
• C. Organizing-building phase
• D. Entry phase

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, the organizing-building phase. This phase involves providing training to leaders and groups to develop their knowledge, skills, and attitudes in managing their own programs. Choice A, the sustenance and strengthening phase, focuses more on maintaining and enhancing existing programs rather than training. Choice B, the pre-entry phase, occurs before actual organizing and training take place.

2. A female adult walks into a local community health clinic and tells the nurse that she is homeless and cannot seem to find help. Which statement indicates to the nurse that a client is feeling separated from society and helpless?

• A. "I'm feeling really isolated from everyone and scared."
• B. "I feel like I cannot get enough food to live any longer."
• C. "I know that I will always be poor so what's the use of trying?"
• D. "People like me are never respected, no matter how well we do."

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The statement "I'm feeling really isolated from everyone and scared" indicates a sense of separation from society and helplessness. This choice reflects feelings of loneliness and fear, which are common among individuals who feel disconnected and helpless. Choices B, C, and D do not directly convey a sense of isolation and helplessness. Choice B focuses on food insecurity, choice C on a resigned attitude towards poverty, and choice D on lack of respect, none of which directly address the feelings of being separated from society and helpless as indicated in the scenario.

3. The Philippine Family Program seeks to improve and maintain which of the following life-saving measures?

• A. proper spacing of pregnancies
• B. proper timing of pregnancies
• C. fewer pregnancies
• D. all of the above

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, all of the above. The Philippine Family Program aims to enhance and sustain proper spacing of pregnancies, proper timing of pregnancies, and reducing the number of pregnancies. These measures are essential for promoting maternal and child health, preventing complications, and ensuring better outcomes. Choices A, B, and C are all part of the comprehensive approach taken by the program to safeguard the well-being of families and contribute to overall public health.

4. The home health nursing director is conducting an educational program for registered nurses and practical nurses about Medicare reimbursement. To obtain payment for Medicare services, what must be included in the client's record?

• A. A prescription from the healthcare provider for each visit made.
• B. Documentation of a skilled care service provided during the visit.
• C. A copy of the client's health history and social security card.
• D. A record of the preventative healthcare services provided during the visit.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Documentation of skilled care services is required for Medicare reimbursement. Medicare reimbursement is based on the provision of skilled care services, not on prescriptions or preventative healthcare services. Including a copy of the client's health history and social security card is not a requirement for Medicare reimbursement.

5. In providing comprehensive family health care, the nurse utilizes four (4) basic processes. These are listed in the order in which they are carried out as follows:

• A. assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation
• B. assessment, intervention, planning, and evaluation
• C. planning, assessment, intervention, and evaluation
• D. planning, intervention, evaluation, and assessment

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct order for the basic processes in providing comprehensive family health care is assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation. Assessment is the first step to gather information, followed by planning to set goals and strategies, then intervention to implement the plan, and finally evaluation to assess the outcomes. Choice A is correct as it follows this logical sequence. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not follow the correct order of these essential processes in nursing care.
