Assumption 8 states: "Public health nursing practice utilizes a common set of interventions regardless of practice setting.". This implies:
1. Interventions are characterized by wedges that clearly state the order of imple-mentation.
2. The Intervention Wheel encompasses surveillance as the main element.
3. Interventions guide practice and are subject to regulatory agency protocols.
4. Interventions are actions taken on behalf of communities, systems, individuals, and families to improve or protect health status.

This question is asking what interventions are, as described by the assumption.
