33
What is diagnosis in community nursing vs acute care setting
risk of among related to
34
What is planning in community nursing
create an intervention that the community agrees with /after you have assessed planned intervention has to be achievable/measurable

(1) conducting a community assessment (2) collection data (3) community diagnosis (4) planning & prioritization phase (5) implementation phase (6) evaluation phase
36
conducting a community assessment means
includes: population assessment primary informants aka key informants gaining entry into the community - who do u talk to 1st to learn about the community(ie : mayor, relg leaders0
37
What is Kauffman's 5 phases gaining entry into the community
(1) impressing (2) behaving (3) swapping (4) belonging (5) chilling out
38
impressing
one of Kauffman's 5 phases of gaining entry into the community-you're new & being judged by community -wariness from the community -you should be neutral , an observer & a resource to the community
39
behaving
one of Kauffman's 5 phases of gaining entry into the community as a relationship develops, myths about you & your own myths about the population begin to erode (try to learn the language)
40
swapping
one of Kauffman's 5 phases of gaining entry into the community they are giving things to you &you are sharing things with them
41
belonging
one of Kauffman's 5 phases of gaining entry into the community people are starting to share things with you that they wouldn't share with an outsider-the hidden becomes exposed
42
chilling out

56
What are 9 ways to facilitate learning
Use methods to stimulate senses * Uses active learning * Establish comfortable environment * Assess readiness of learner * Make information relevant * Use repetition * Make learning positive * Proceed from simple to complex * Generalize and pace appropriately
57
What are the 4 behavioral learning theories
(1) health belief model (2) harm reduction model(controversial) (3) goal setting therapy (4) theory of reasoned action
58
What is health belief model(behavioral learning theory)
Perceived susceptibility, severity, benefit and barriers. Also include self0efficacy ie: I'm at risk for colon cancer and I will follow up with annual FOB and screenings per HCP, even though its unpleasant
59

Based on understanding that accurate information can help people make responsible decision/focus is on education and not aimed at complete abstinence. ie: I know my risk for colon cancer, but I love my beef ie: I'll decrease it to once a week if my wife helps me argument against this theory is that you are encouraging the bad behavior
60
What is goal-setting theory (behavior learning theory)
ie: My goal it to lose 12 lbs over the next 6 months. I know that 2 lbs a month is realistic for me.
61
What theory of reasoned action
ie: I will sign up for Weight Watchers because they helped me years ago, and I can go with my friend
62
What is the Transtheortical model
-is a change process model/most common Provides a framework for exploring if a client is ready to make changes in behavior. Useful in persons who are engaged in "risky behavior" Movement through stages my be sequential or not, i.e. May move back and forth through the stages
63
What are the 6 stages of change in the Transtheortical model
(1) Precontemplation (2) Contemplation (3) Prepartion (4) Action (5) Maintenance (6)Termination
64
Precontemplation (transtheortical model)
I smoke/I like it/don't care if I die person not gonna change
65
Contemplation (transtheortical model)
smoking might be a problem, might get COPD/CA, I get that it will cause that
66
Preparation (transtheortical model)
maybe I should quit, maybe try 1 pack a day-preparing to quit, thinking about it

77
What are the consequences of low functional health literacy
(1) less likely to understand written and oral information given by the health care provider 92) less likely to act upon necessary procedures and directions such as medication and appointments schedules (3) less likely to be able to navigate the health care delivery system to obtain needed services
78
What are the strategies to assist low-literate health care consumers
HCP's can create a "Shame Free" environment provide surrogate readers to decipher information clinic staff can tell client what is needed prior to an appointment (medication list, insurance care etc) Tailor medication schedule to fit daily routine, color, coding medications etc. Teach-Back method(ie: Can you tell me in your own words?) If low health literacy is suspected, give individual an out such as "A lot of people have trouble with this material." Use common words, not medical jargon Use tools designed for low literacy levels Limit information given (less than 1/2 of info is retained)
79
How effectively TEACH clients
TEACH mnemonic: Tune in-Listen before you start teaching. Edit information-Teach necessary information first Act on each teaching comment-Teach whenever possible, Develop a good relationship Clarify often-Make sure your assumptions are correct. Seek feedback Honor the (individual, family, group, community, population) as partner, build on experience, Share responsibility

83
Ability
the person has the skills necessary to perform a behavior
84
Anticipated outcomes
the person believes that the advantages (benefits) of performing the behavior outweigh the disadvantages (costs); the person has positive attitude toward performing the behavior
85

104
What is meant by "the social determinants of health?
making sure pt.'s environment is conducive to health &wellness-Poorer people live shorter lives and are often more ill then the rich. this disparity has drawn attention to the remarkable sensitivity of health to the social environment. social environment here is education, work, transportation, access to food/living wage that will enable person to achieve what we hope they can achieve
105
health is more than health care
social conditions-the jobs we do, the money we're pain. the schools we attend, the neighborhoods we live in-are as important to health as our genes, our behaviors and even our medical care. "working upstream"
106
health is tied to the distribution of resources
the single strongest predictor of our health is our position on class pyramid
107
racism imposes an added health burden
Past and present discrimination in housing, jobs, and education mean that today people of color are more likely to be lower on the class ladder. But even at the same level, African American typically have the worse health and die sooner than their white counterparts. instinctual racism ie: hospital won't allow nurse to wear head covering
108
the choices we make are shaped by the choices we have
Individual behaviors-smoking, diet, drinking, and exercise-do matter for health. But making good choices isn't just about self-discipline. Some neighborhoods have easy access to fresh, affordable produce, others have only fast food, liquor joints and convenience stores
109
high demand + low control=chronic stress
it's not CEO's dying of heart attacks, it's their subordinates. People at the top certainly face pressure but they are more likely to have the power and resources to mange those pressure. The lower in the pecking orders we are, the greater our exposure to forces that can upset our lives
110
chronic stress can be deadly
when threats are constant and unrelenting our physiological systems don't return to normal
111
inequality-economic & political is bad for our health
The United States has by far the most inequality in the industrialized world-and the worst health
112
social policy is health policy
Social measures like living wage jobs, paid sick and family leave, guaranteed vacations, universal preschool and access to college. and guaranteed health care can further extend our lives by improving them. These are as much health issues as diet, smoking and exercise.
113
health inequalities are neither natural nor inevitable
inequalities in health-arising from racial class based inequalities are the result of decision that we as a society have made. thus, we can make them differently.
114
we all pay the price for poor health
it's not only the poor but also the middle classes whose health is suffering
115
What is a community?
Group of people who share something in common and interact with one another who may exhibit a commitment with one another and may share geographic boundary ie: church parish, NYU students, city of Yonkers
116
What is a population?
Group of people who have at least one thing in common and who may or may not interact with one another ie: long distance truck drivers, nurses who do night shift
