1. Population based services

2. Clinical preventative services

3. Primary health care

4. Secondary health care

5. Tertiary health care

Explanation:

Going by the the health services pyramid, population-based health care services takes the lead, clinical preventive services is next level to population-based health care services in the pyramid. Since nurse needs to address primary health care (prenatal and baby care and nutrition counseling) of his/her clients, therefore, it comes third. Secondary health care services follows. Tertiary health care forms the highest level of health, which include intensive care came last.
