Nursing interventions can help empower a client to achieve a higher level of
h h h h h h h h h h h h h




wellness; a nurse can foster wellness in his or her clients. Wellness is defined by the
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




individual and is multidimensional. It is not just the absence of disease. A wellness
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




perspective is based on the belief that every person has an optimal level of health
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




independent of his or her situation or functional level. Even in the presence of
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




chronic illness or while dying, a movement toward wellnessis possible if emphasis of
h h h h h h h h h h h h




h care is placed on the promotion of well-being in a supportive environment.

ANS:A h




Health is a broad term that encompasses attitudes and behaviors; holistically,
h h h h h h h h h h h




health includes wellness, which in- volves one‘s whole being. The concept of illness
h h h h h h h h h h h h h




prevention was never considered by previous generations; through-out history, basic
h h h h h h h h h h h




self-care requirements have been recognized. Wellness and self- actualization
h h h h h h h h h




develop through learning and growth—as basic needs are met, higher level needs can
h h h h h h h h h h h h h




be satisfied in turn, with ever-deepening rich- ness to life. Wellness is possible when
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h




one‘s health is compromised—even with chronic illness, with multiple dis- abilities,
h h h h h h h h h h h




or in dying, movement toward a higher level of wellness is possible.
