, WHO defines health as ―. . .the extent to which an individual or group is able, on the
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
one hand, to realize aspirations and satisfy needs; and, on the other hand, to change or
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
cope with the environment. Health is, therefore, seen as a resource for everyday life,
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
not the objective of living; it is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
resources, as well as physical capacities.‖ Nurses‘ attitudes toward health and illness
p p p p p p p p p p p p
should consider the total person, as well as the environment in which the person lives.

Increasingly, policy advocacy is incorporated into nursing role statements and nursing
p p p p p p p p p p
education curricula. Nurses should think about policies that have contributed to health
p p p p p p p p p p p p
problems, policies that would help alleviate health problems, and how nurses champion

public policies. Disease prevention, health promotion, and concepts of determinants of

Charter for Health Promotion. Lack of social support and low self-esteem were identified
p p p p p p p p p p p p p

p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
p of the following?
p p
a. Education.
b. Health services. p
c. Social support networks. p p
d. Income and social status. p p p
ANS: D p
Income, income distribution, and social status constitute the greatest determinant of
p p p p p p p p p p
health because they influence most other determinants. Some investigators suggest that
p p p p p p p p p p p
literacy and education are important influences on health status because they affect
p p p p p p p p p p p p
pmany other health determinants. Approximately 25% of a population‘s health status is
p p p p p p p p p p p
attributed to the quality of its health care services. Social support affects health, health
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
behaviours, and health care utilization but is not the greatest determinant of health.

p prevention level? p
a. Primary prevention level. p p
b. Secondaryprevention level. p
c. Tertiaryprevention level. p
d. Health promotion level. p p

The secondary prevention level focuses on early detection of disease once pathogenesis

has occurred, so that prompt treatment can be initiated to halt disease and limit disability.
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
The primary prevention level focuses on health promotion, specific protection measures
p p p p p p p p p p p
such as immunizations, and the reduction of risk factors such as smoking. The tertiary
p p p p p p p p p p p p p p
prevention level focuses on minimizing residual disability.
