, 2. PRIMARY, SECONDARY & TERTIARY PREVENTION
Primary prevention reduces the likelihood that a disorder will develop. Examples include resilience programs, prenatal support,
violence prevention, and population mental-health promotion.
Secondary prevention emphasizes early identification and prompt treatment. Screening and early intervention fit here.
Tertiary prevention addresses disability and rehabilitation after illness is established. Supported employment, vocational
rehabilitation, relapse planning, and community reintegration are examples.
Intervention Level Why
Mental-health promotion before illness Primary Prevents occurrence
Screening + early treatment Secondary Early identification/treatment
Medication treatment of established illness Secondary Treats existing disorder
Supported employment Tertiary Rehabilitation/function
Relapse-prevention plan Tertiary Reduces disability/recurrence
Exam trap: classify the intervention by its goal and timing, not simply by whether medication is involved.
