c. Promoting a society in which all people live long, healthy lives. ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




d. Focusing on illness treatment to provide fast recuperation. ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




ACCURATE ar

ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



d disease prevention (instead of illness care) and encourages cooperation among individuals,
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



communities, and other public, private, and nonprofit organizations to improve health. The c ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




urrent publication, Healthy People 2030, promotes a society in which all people live long, health
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



y lives. The goals do not include continuing current behaviors to reduce stress, focusing only o
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



n health changes for communities, or focusing on fast recuperation.

b. Providing care that involves the whole person ra ra ra ra ra ra




c. Assuring that care is strictly personal in nature ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




d. Directing focus only on the pathological state ra ra ra ra ra ra




ACCURATE ar



ANSWER:-B
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as a ―state of complete physical, me
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



ntal, and social wellbeing, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.‖ Therefore, nursing atte
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



ndant s’ attitudes ra ra



toward health and illness should consider the total person, as well as the environment in whi
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



ch the person lives. All people free of disease are not necessarily healthy. Strictly personal and
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



a focus only on pathological states do not correlate to WHO’s definition.

3. The nursing attendant is preparing a smoking cessation class for family members of hospital
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



client s with lung cancer. The nursing attendant believes that the class will convert many s
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



mokers to nonsmokers once they realize the benefits of not smoking. Which health care mo
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



del is the nursing attendant following? a. Health belief model
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




b. Holistic health model ra ra

The health belief model addresses the relationship between a person’s beliefs and behaviors.
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



The holistic health model recognizes the natural healing abilities of the body and incorporates
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



complementary and alternative interventions such as music therapy. The health promotion m ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



odel focuses on the following three areas: (1) individual characteristics and experiences, (2) b
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



ehavior-
specific knowledge and affect, and (3) behavioral outcomes, in which the hospital client com
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



mits to or changes a behavior. Maslow’s’ hierarchy of needs is based on the theory that all peopl
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar ra ra



e share basic human needs, and the extent to which basic needs are met is a major factor in de
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra

ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra a



attendant address first? a. Anxiety
r ra ra




b. Not eating ra




c. Mental health ra




d. Not seeing family members ra ra ra




ACCURATE ANSWER:-B ra



According to Maslow, in all cases an emergent physiological need takes precedence over a
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



higher-
level need. Nutrition is a physiological need and should be addressed first. Anxiety, mental
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar ra



health, and not seeing family members (need for love and belonging) are all higher-
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



level needs. ra

ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra

bsequent actions. The basic human needs model believes that the extent to which basic need
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



s are met is a major factor in determining a person’s level of health. Maslow’s hierarchy of nee

c. Employment status is an internal variable that impacts compliance. ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




d. Noncompliant hospital client s thrive on the disapproval of authority figures. ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra




ACCURATE ANSWER:-B ra



A person’s adherence with treatment is affected by economic status. A person tends to give a
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



higher priority to food and shelter than to costly drugs or treatments. External variables can h
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



ave a major impact on compliance. Employment status is an external variable, not an internal va
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



riable. A person generally seeks approval and support from social networks, and this desire for
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ar



approval affects health beliefs and practices; noncompliance does not occur from thriving on
ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra



disapproval of authority figures. ra ra ra
