The nurse is using a map to show a group of community members that several pockets of vulnerable populations are located in areas that are likely to be affected by flooding. This type of map is called a community:

1. Resource map.
2. Disaster map.
3. Population map.
4. Risk map.


Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. A community risk map pinpoints locations of disaster risks within the community and indicates pockets of particularly vulnerable populations in areas that are likely to be affected by disasters. The community resource map indicates locations of resources that are likely to be needed in the event of each of the types of disasters for which the community is at risk. A community disaster map and community population map are not types of hazard maps.
