Nurses have a unique role in redefining the way we view partnerships in healthcare—

Transitioning from individualized to family-focused care is not only advocated by the Institute of Medicine; it’s becoming a way of life. Families want their perspectives and choices for their loved ones to be heard.

Try searching for family-focused nursing resources, and you may be surprised. Recent evidence-based research and strategies for family-focused nursing texts are hard to find.

That’s why we’ve made it our priority to deliver the most up-to-date educational resource to help nurses meet the goal of empowering patients and their families—throughout the entire nursing process.

2. Compare and contrast obesity and malnutrition as public health issues, and describe how families can influence them.

ANS:
Nurses and the general public are often unaware of public health measures that might be used to reverse the obesity epidemic. Some solutions rest outside the health-care industry, but clinicians might make important differences. For example, lifestyle choices, the built environment, leadership capacities, prevention, public policy, and government interventions offer alternative approaches to the obesity problem. Coordinated actions are needed to solve a problem of this magnitude. Nurses that think family can help by looking beyond primary care settings and find ways to address this concern—one of which is to educate families. Malnutrition and starvation are also growing problems, not only for the homeless or the unemployed, but one that is faced daily by families with inadequate incomes. Families often choose between food and other basic needs (e.g., rent, utilities, and medical care). Nurses that think family consider the health and illness of the family units and the larger society, not merely individuals.

3. Explain what is meant by this statement of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons:
“Societal needs for medical health care have both quantitative and qualitative perspectives.”

ANS:
Quantitative means that the appropriate number, type, and mix of physicians, nurses, or other health-care professionals are available. Qualitative needs have to do with the adequacy of the professionals’ knowledge, skills, attitudes, and willingness to assume the roles needed by diverse societies. Professional competencies needed by population groups are often culturally specific responses to societal needs, social determinants of health, and the burden of illness.
