The community has a large number of immigrants. The nurse organizes a home visiting program to this community area to address family health concerns and provide health information. This is considered:

1. Care of the sick.

4. Health protection.

ESSAYBID ANSWER

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. Visiting the homes of this population to address health concerns is an aspect of health promotion and illness prevention. The client is in a familiar environment and is more comfortable, which makes teaching easier for the nurse. The population is not indicated as sick. Case finding and referral would apply if the nurse was seeking something specific among this population. Health protection is part of health promotion, but is more of a broad-scale activity done to maintain health.
