Evaluating the use of a data base system with community health nursing students.

The Data Base Management System for community diagnosis was used during two academic semesters with 80 baccalaureate nursing students. At the end of the two semesters the DBMS was evaluated from feedback obtained through faculty discussions, final student papers and oral presentations. The DBMS met the goals established to evaluate the tool. The clarification of categories for essential data is an ongoing process.

Utilizing a community data base system with community health nursing students.

The instrument to "go out and study the community" can be awesome and confusing to both students and nurses. The use of the data base management system as described in this paper makes the task a less formidable one. It also systematically classifies data about a community into a usable form so that nursing diagnoses can be identified appropriately. We strongly believe that the concept of community-as-client must become a part of the philosophy of every community health nurse. We see the data base management system as one method of incorporating this philosophy.
