Community/Public Health Nursing: Promoting the Health of Populations 8th edition

الوصف

PURPOSE OF THE TEXT

In this text, the reader is encouraged to become a student of the

community, learn from families and other aggregates in the

community how they define and promote their own health, and

learn how to become an advocate of the community by working

with it to initiate change. The student is exposed to the

complexity and rich diversity of the community and is shown

evidence of how the community organizes to meet change.

The use of language or terminology by clients and agencies

varies in different parts of the United States, and it may vary

from that used by government officials. The contributors to this

text are a diverse group from various parts of the United States.

Their terms vary from chapter to chapter and from those in use

in local communities. For example, some authors refer to Af-

rican Americans, some to blacks, some to European Americans,

and some to whites. The student must be familiar with a range

of terms and, most important, know what is used in his or her

local community.
