QuestionAnswer
Health and wellness are not merely the absence of disease and illness
A person's state of health, wellness, or illness depends on individual values, personality, and lifestyle
The health belief model considers the relationship between a person's health beliefs and health behaviors
The health promotion model highlights factors that increase individual well-being and self-actualization
Maslow's hierarchy of needs model emphasizes identification of client's individual needs, prioritizing the needs, and encouraging the client's individual discovery of self (self-actualization)
Holistic health models of nursing promote optimal health by incorporating active participation of clients in improving their health state
Health beliefs and practices are influenced by internal and external variables and should be considered when planning care
Health promotion activities help maintain or enhance health
Wellness education teaches clients how to care for themselves
Illness prevention activities protect against health threats and thus maintain an optimal level of health
Nursing incorporates health promotion, wellness, and illness prevention activities rather than simply treating illness
The 3 levels of preventive care are primary, secondary, and tertiary
Risk factors threaten health, influence health practices, and are important considerations in illness prevention activities
Improvement in health may involve a change in health behaviors
The transtheoretical model of change describes a series of changes that are progressed through for successful behavior change rather than simply assuming all clients are in an "action" stage
Illness behavior, like health practices, is influenced by many variables and must be considered by the nurse when planning care
Illness can have many effects on the client and family, including changes in behavior and emotions, family roles and dynamics, body image, and self-concept
