Question

which action would be included in the assessment process by a nurse working in a school health promotion program for adolescents? select all that apply. one, some, or all responses may be correct. conduct a school violence assessment. assess the sleep pattern of the students. try identifying individuals at risk for substance use. identify the need for fluoride supplements to prevent dental caries. inquire about the presence of guns in the home to reduce the incidence of homicide.

Explanation:

• School nurses focus on health - related aspects. School violence assessment (as it can impact mental and physical health), sleep pattern assessment (sleep is crucial for adolescent health), identifying substance - use - risk individuals (substance use affects health), and fluoride - supplement - need identification (dental health is part of overall health) are all within the purview of a school health promotion program. Inquiring about guns in the home is more of a law - enforcement or social - work - related (in a broader sense) task rather than a direct health - promotion assessment by a school nurse.

Answer:

Conduct a school violence assessment, Assess the sleep pattern of the students, Try identifying individuals at risk for substance use, Identify the need for fluoride supplements to prevent dental caries.
