TASK
Post your initial response to the topic below.
In community and public health nursing, the target of care is the community, thus the community is the client receiving the care. The role of the nurse is to evaluate health concerns and develop an aggregate plan of care to address those concerns. Aggregates or target populations in the community may include child care centers, cities, counties, senior centers, homeless shelters, minority communities, faith-based organizations, work sites, schools, or other populations.
- Identify and discuss a few targeted populations in your community that are of interest to you.
- Provide your rationale for the selections identified.
