Feedback
1 Illness-prevention activities focus on avoiding a specific disease. A food diary is
a health-promotion activity.
2 Although cancer is a disease, it is assumed that a person joining a support group
would already have the disease; therefore, this is not disease prevention but treat
ment.
3 Administering immunization for HPV is an example of illness prevention.
4 Teaching a diabetic patient about diet is a treatment for diabetes; the patient alrea
dy has diabetes, so it cannot prevent diabetes.
