Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After completing a community assessment, the nurse then establishes a community diagnosis. Once this is done, the next step is to decide on an intervention that can address the specific public health issue identified in the diagnosis. A good starting point in the development of community/public health intervention is to begin with the Healthy People 2020 objectives, locating the specific focus area that matches the community diagnosis. Once the nurse identifies the focus of the intervention, the next step is to determine the level of prevention.
