Community Health Nursing: The 3 Broad Concepts
1. What is a community?– a group of people with
common characteristics or interests living together within a territory or geographical boundary
– place where people under usual conditions are found
– The community is the object or focus of care in CHN, with the family as the unit of service.

FACTS of CHN
Focus : promotion and preservation of health
Area of Content: skills and knowledge relevant to both nursing and public health
Clients : general populations (individuals, families, communities)
Time : continual, not limited to episodic care
Scope : comprehensive and general, not limited to a particular age or group

2. What Is Health?
A state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity (WHO, 1995).
04/18/2023 6
What is Health?
It carries the mandate that health is a basic human right.
It is seen as a spectrum or a continuum
• The modern concept of health refers to Optimum Level of Functioning (OLOF) of individuals, families, and communities, which is influenced by the ecosystem through a myriad of factors.
04/18/2023 7
What influences OLOF?
• Behavioral (culture, habits, mores, ethnic customs)
• Socio-economic (employment, education, housing)
• Political (safety, oppression, people, empowerment)
• Hereditary (genetic endowment, familial, racial)
• Health Care Delivery System (promotive, preventive, curative, rehabilitative)
• Environment (air, food, water, wastes, noise, radiation, pollution, congestion)
3. What is Nursing?
The diagnosis and treatment of human responses to actual or potential health problems (ANA, 1980).
Nursing, together with public health, is one of the helping professions in the health care system which operates at three levels of clientele – individuals, families or groups, and communities
04/18/2023 9
It operates within the realm of health care both independently and interdependently.
The objective of nursing is to assist clients to achieve, maintain, or recover a high level of functioning.
Assisting sick individuals to become healthy and healthy individuals achieve optimum wellness (Henderson)

pertaining to CHN
Knowledge-base of CHN• Biological and social sciences
• Ecology
• Clinical Nursing
04/18/2023 13
•Utilizes COMMUNITY HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS
it is population-focused – “the greatest good for the greatest number” > Community diagnosis
> Vital statistics
> Priority setting
it is a promotive-preventive service
– adheres to Primary Health Care > Health education
> Preventive treatment
• It is a generalist practice – deals with all cases
04/18/2023 15

1. The patient in CHN is the Community which is composed of different population groups and several families (the basic unit of care), and In turn compose of individuals.
2. Client is ACTIVE and NOT PASSIVE recipient of care
3. CHN practice is affected by any changes in society and environment

CHN Process
Community Diagnosis
• Determining the health status of the populations in the community as
well as the factors that directly or indirectly affect their health status
• It is an integral part of the assessment phase of the CHN Process
• It is also known as community assessment or situational analysis

Biostatistics
A. Demography
A study of population size, composition, and spatial distribution as affected by births, deaths, and migration
04/18/2023 71
SOURCES OF DEMOGRAPHIC DATA:
1. Survey1. Census- De jure or De facto
2. Sample Survey
2. Continuing Population Registers
3. Other Records and Registration Systems
04/18/2023 72
COMPONENTS:Population Size
1. Natural increase2. Net migration3. Rate of natural increase
Population Composition4. Age Distribution5. Median Age6. Dependency Ratio7. Sex Ratio8. Population Pyramid9. Others: occupational groups, economic groups,
educational attainment, and ethnic groups
04/18/2023 73
Population Distribution1. Urban-Rural
• Shows the proportion of people living in urban compared to the rural areas
2. Crowding Index• Indicates the ease by which a communicable
disease can be transmitted from 1 host to another susceptible host
3. Population Density• Determines the congestion of the place
04/18/2023 74
B. VITAL STATISTICS The application of statistical measures to
vital events (births, deaths and common illnesses) that is utilized to gauge the levels of health, illness and health services of a community.
• Fertility Rate

Morbidity RatePrevalence Incidence Rate
04/18/2023 76
C. EPIDEMIOLOGY
– The study of distribution of disease or physiologic condition among human population s and the factors affecting such distribution
– The study of the occurrence and distribution of health conditions such as disease, death, deformities or disabilities on human populations
04/18/2023 77
Basic Concepts:
–Epidemiologic Triad–Transmission – Incubation period–Herd immunity
04/18/2023 78
Factors affecting distribution:
• PERSON– intrinsic characteristics
• PLACE– extrinsic factors
• TIME– temporal patterns
04/18/2023 79
Patterns of Disease Occurrence:• Epidemic
– a situation when there is a high incidence of new cases of a specific disease in excess of the expected.
– when the proportion of the susceptible are high compared to the proportion of the immunes
• Epidemic potential – an area becomes vulnerable to a disease upsurge due to causal
factors such as climatic changes, ecologic changes, or socio-economic changes
04/18/2023 80
• Endemic – habitual presence of a disease in a given geographic location
accounting for the low number of both immunes and susceptible
e.g. Malaria is a disease endemic at Palawan. – the causative factor of the disease is constantly available or
present to the area.
• Sporadic – disease occurs every now and then affecting only a small
number of people relative to the total population– intermittent
• Pandemic – global occurrence of a disease
