Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. Florence Nightingale envisioned a nursing profession that included roles in public health and health promotion for nurses. Although her focus primarily centered on advancing the profession within hospital settings, her vision laid the groundwork for the role of nurses in public health. Clara Barton is known for founding the American Red Cross and successfully advocating for the Treaty of Geneva ratification in 1882, allowing the Red Cross to engage in humanitarian efforts during peacetime. Lillian Wald is recognized as the pioneer of public health nursing and, along with Mary Brewster, was among the first to provide trained nursing care to the impoverished population in New York City slums, establishing the Visiting Nurse Service and the Henry Street Settlement.

5) During a health assessment, a question arises about the use of the term “patient.” How should the nurse clarify the implication of the term “patient”?
1. The individual is requesting assistance due to an illness.
2. The person is actively involved in addressing their health needs.
3. The person is actively contributing to their care.
4. The individual is consuming a service or product.
Answer: 1
Explanation: 1. The term “patient” originates from a Latin word meaning “to suffer” or “to endure.” Typically, individuals become patients when seeking help for illnesses or surgeries. Some nurses believe that using the term “patient” implies a passive acceptance of healthcare providers’ decisions and care, contrasting with the proactive involvement in addressing one’s healthcare needs. In contrast, “client” portrays the care recipient as a collaborator alongside the healthcare providers. A “consumer” is someone utilizing a service or product.
