A community health map is an assessment tool for family structure,function,and support networks.It displays significant related data and helps the nurse focus on the family as it interacts with the social systems within and around the family.Its purpose is not to locate local health-care settings.The focus is on family health and past successes and current strengths,not on family problems.Correlations can be made between the health of the community and the health of those living in that community,but this is not the purpose of the community health map.
