|| || || || || ||
A patient in a community health clinic tells the nurse, "I have a high
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
temperature, feel awful, and I am not going to work." What stage of illness
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
behavior is the patient exhibiting?
|| || || || ||
Stage 1: Experiencing symptoms
|| || ||
|| Stage 2: Assuming the sick role
|| || || || ||
|| Stage 3: Assuming a dependent
|| || || ||
role
||
Stage 4: Achieving recovery and rehabilitation - CORRECT ANSWER-b. Stage 2:
|| || || || || || | | || ||
Assuming the sick role. When people assume the sick role, they define
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
themselves as ill, seek validation of this experience from others, and give up
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
normal activities. In stage 1: Experiencing symptoms, the first indication of
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
an illness usually is
|| || || ||
,recognizing one or more symptoms that are incompatible with one's personal
|| || || || || || || || || ||
definition of health. The stage of assuming a dependent role is
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
characterized by the patient's decision to accept the diagnosis and follow the
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
prescribed treatment plan. In the achieving recovery and rehabilitation role,
|| || || || || || || || || ||
the person gives up the dependent role and resumes normal activities and
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
responsibilities.

inheritance, age, developmental level, race, and biological sex. These
|| || || || || || || || ||
components strongly influence the person's health status and health
|| || || || || || || || ||
practices. A family history of breast cancer is a major risk factor.
