,the nurse must recognize that in the health care delivery system, the major goal is
to achieve optimal levels of health care. the health care system consists of a
network of agencies, facilities, and providers involved with health care in a

care system. the illness of patients is not necessarily affected by the health care
system.

and to design care to meet those needs?

an individualized care plan involves all health care workers and outlines care to

designed to assist all members of the health care team to meet those needs.

the acute awareness of preventive medicine has resulted in today's emphasis on

preventive education has resulted in an emphasis on wellness, rather than illness.
improved insurance payments, decentralized care centers, and increased numbers
of health care givers did not influence an emphasis on wellness.
