No. The ability's own action (for example scavenge on card 1510) is a card action you can perform at any location that shows one of the targets listed on the ability card; you do not need to find that action's word on the location. Its benefit is the result of the matching location action, e.g. a card gaining the results of GUIDE or RESCUE uses its 4-cost overpower-DEFEND action where the location shows GUIDE or RESCUE.
