1. What are the 4 component of community health nursing process? Provide insight into
each component
The component of community health nursing process is assessment phase, nursing
diagnosis planning phase, action/implementation phase and evaluation phase.
Establishing and maintaining working relationship
- Community health nursing process is helping community people and families identify their
health problems and develop competencies to solve their health problems and meet their
health and nursing needs.
- This enabled when the community health nurse establishes a good working relationship
with the families and community
- Working relationship is productive in nature.
- In "working relationship" between community health nurse and the community
people/families, there is a free dialoguing and an attitude of trust and confidence in the
integrality and capabilities of each other to meet health and nursing goals.
- A working relationship between a nurse and the community is initiated and maintained by
the following means: knowing the client (community), communicating intensions and
nature of help and assistance that would be extended, attentive listening and responding
in between, answering their queries, considering their views, appreciating what is worth
while, empathetic attitude, meeting their immediate needs and needs which are
considered important by them
-
Assessment of health needs and health problems
- The community health nurse comes to know the health needs and problems of the
community as she explores the community.
- The problem could be a large family size, malnutrition in children, incomplete
immunization. Anemia in pregnant and nursing mothers, tb and more
- After obtaining the list of health needs and problems the community nurse needs to
prioritize the problems as all the problems cannot be dealt with simultaneously.
Setting objectives
- Once the problems are prioritized, it is very important to set up objectives relevant to
each of the problems identified.

Planning and implementation intervention
- This is otherwise called the action plan
- Various actions are decided and implemented as being most effective in order to solve
particular problems (e.g., problem of malnutrition among under 5)
- As the action is implemented, the community health nurse gives direct nursing care either
by herself or through ANM.
Evaluation of action plan
- Evaluation of interventions determines the effectiveness of actions implemented
[Link] the desired results intended are achieved or not.
- Evaluation also helps in finding out the reasons for not achieving the desired goal.
- This helps in making further improvement (feedback and re plan, re implement and re-
evaluate)
