    Nursing: Critical Thinking Questions for Chapter 1

    1. What is your typical daily diet and eating habits?

    2. One initiative that addresses the nutritional needs of the homebound elderly in New

    York (my current city) is the Meals on Wheels program. Meals on Wheels Association of

    New York State serves as the state affiliate of the national Meals on Wheels Association

    of America, and works to support the more than 900 local Meals on Wheels programs

    across the state.

    You can reach them by phone (518) 456-2898 or by email [email protected].

    3. A chronic disease is a medical condition that lasts for a long time and typically cannot

    be cured completely, but can be managed through lifestyle changes and medical

    treatment. They are often characterized by symptoms such as fatigue, pain, and difficulty

    performing daily activities. Chronic diseases are typically caused by a combination of

    genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors.

    4. As of 2023, the eliminating health disparities goal has not yet been met. For example,

    while overall life expectancy has increased, certain minority populations still have

    shorter life expectancies than the general population. Additionally, while some diseases

    and conditions have been reduced, others, such as obesity and diabetes, continue to be

    major public health challenges. The reasons for these disparities are complex and

    multifaceted, and likely include a combination of social, economic, and environmental

    factors.

    5. Entrepreneurship can be important to the practice of community nutrition because it

    allows individuals and organizations to develop innovative solutions to address nutrition-

    related issues in their communities. For example, an entrepreneur in a low-income

    community might start a community garden or a healthy food delivery service to provide

    residents with access to fresh fruits and vegetables.
