The instructor determines the session is successful when the students correctly choose which focus of community-based health care that has been implemented to combat the increased cost?

a. Providing care for the client as an individual
b. Tracking reportable diseases
c. Keeping clients with chronic illnesses in their homes
d. Preventing disease and its sequelae

Answer 1

The correct answer is option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime objective of community-based health care is to sustain the health and quality of life of the individuals who live within a similar small jurisdiction. The treatment provided by the community-based health care is not focused to treat one particular person like done in the general hospitals.

They aim to find the kind of disease, which might hamper the community as a whole. Even though there is less chance to treat more advanced situations, the advancement in technology permits them to make attempts to prevent the disease from taking place.
