Ans. & rationale: A. Consultation. In the 1978 Declaration of Alma-Ata, people's participation
in and contribution to health systems has been recognized as central for primary health care and
accepted as an essential element of many public health interventions. Consultation is defined as the
minimum level of participation of all stakeholders in the decisions throughout the formulation
and execution of a project leading to a sustainable development for the population in the
community.

Ans. & rationale: A. People identify and prioritize their own problems. Community
health nursing maximizes the state of health and well-being of the people through passive
involvement in identifying problems. Communities can achieve better health status through their own
efforts and the health worker’s role is to help them identify their problems and to point out methods for
dealing with the problems.

Ans. & rationale: D. Community organizing. Community organizing is the process where
community members take on the responsibility of initiating and sustaining their own health care. It
implies the use of locally available resources and the community’s full participation and involvement in
decision making for the planning, organizing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating of those services.
