Community Nursing Windshield Survey

Community Nursing Windshield Survey

Fill out the Windshield Survey Form to the best of your ability based on the community (Highland Park, Illinois)
you choose. I choose Highland Park, Illinois. Nurses must be able to knowledgeably plan services for
individuals, families, and the community. In order to effectively plan, it is essential that you are aware of the
resources specific to the community a client resides in to allow for the identification of health-related resources
and to understand gaps in services. A windshield survey is conducted from a car and provides a visual
overview of a community. Conditions and trends in the community that could affect the health of the population
should be noted. This data provides background and context for working with individuals and families in their
community. Information gathered from this survey should be added to this template. If data is collected
(statistical, informational, geographic), then a reference page using APA format (7th edition) is expected.
