a. person.

ANS: B
U
The concept of environment includes all cultural, developmental, and social determinants that
influence a client’s health perceptions and behavior. A person is defined as the recipient of
R
nursing care, having unique bio-psycho-social and spiritual dimensions. The word health derives
from the word whole. Health is a multidimensional concept, having physical, psychological,
sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual characteristics. The World Health Organization
(WHO, 1946) defines health as “a state of complete physical, mental, social well-being, not
merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” Nursing includes the promotion of health, prevention
of illness, and the care of ill, disabled, and dying people.
