COMMUNITY NURSING FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Nursing Assessment is the first major phase of the nursing process. The Family health nursing
practice, involves a set of actions by which the nurse measures the status of the family as a client, its
ability to maintain itself as a system and functioning unit , and its ability to maintain wellness and well
being among its members.
There are three major steps in nursing assessment as applied to family nursing practice: Data
collection, data analysis and family nursing diagnoses. The First-Level Asessment includes identification
of presence of wellness condition, presence of health threats, presence of health deficits and presence
of stress points/foreseeable crisis condition. The Second-Level assessment data include those that
specify or describe the familys realities, perceptions about and attitudes related to the assumption or
performance of family health tasks on each health condition or problem identified during the first level
assessment.
The Community Nursing Family Assessment is a tool use to assess wellness potential, health
threats, and health deficit based on clients performance, current competencies or clinical data.
Wellness potential is a nursing judgment on wellness state or condition based on clients current
competencies or performance and clinical data to achieve a higher level of state or function in a specific
area on health promotion and maintenance. Health Threats are conditions that are conducive to
disease and accidents, or may result to failure to maintain wellness or realize health potential. Health
Deficits are instances of failure in health maintenance.
Each family then is classified depending on the absence and presence of illness/disease, health
threats, health deficits and the maintenance of health based on the assessment. They will be classified
as Class A Family, Class B Family and Class C. Class A family are families with the absence of health
threats, health deficit and able to maintain/promote wellness. Class B family are those with absence of
health deficit but with health threats and has potential for wellness, while Class C family are families
with health deficit and health threats but has potentials and readiness to improve and enhance wellness
state.
