An outbreak of illness has occurred in a community and is suspected to be related to food ingestion. a community health nurse places priority on which intervention?

As a community health nurse, it is important to know the primary treatment for food poisoning, especially if the entire community is affected. The nurse should prioritize fluid replacement in order to prevent severe dehydration. It is expected that people who ingested food that caused them to get ill will suffer from fluid loss or dehydration due to vomiting or diarrhea. Therefore, it is important to replace these fluids and electrolytes that have been lost so that the body can still get the nutrients it needs. Also, it might help if the community nurse could find the source of the problem so that the outbreak will no longer spread.
