ANS: A u



Disease may be defined as the failure of a person’s adaptive mechanisms to counteract stimuli
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


and stresses adequately, resulting in functional or structural disturbances. This definition is an
u u u u u u u u u u u u u


ecological concept of disease, which uses multiple factors to determine the cause of disease,
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


rather than describing a single cause. Disease and illness are not synonymous.

c. A state of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being
u u u u u u u


d. A state of physical, mental, spiritual, and social functioning that realizes a person’s
u u u u u u u u u u u u


u potential and is experienced within a developmental context.
u u u u u u u



ANS: D u


Definitions of health have evolved as the nature of health and illness becomes better
u u u u u u u u u u u u u


understood. Health is much more than the absence of disease and illness. It is a state of
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


physical, mental, spiritual, and social functioning that realizes a person’s potential and is
u u u u u u u u u u u u u


experienced within a developmental context.

u u u u u u u u u u u u u

u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


their own health.

u u u u u u u u u u u u


a. CDCQOL-BREF (from the Centers for Disease Control) u u u u u u


b. McGowan Quality of Life Questionnaire u u u u

established by the World Health Organization Quality of Life, WHOQOL-BREF and the
u u u u u u u u u u u u


McGill Quality of Life Questionnaire for use at the end of life. The Ottawa Charter for Health
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


Promotion provides a framework for health promotion, rather than measuring quality of life.

5. Which of the following best describes a care recipient who has an illness?
u u u u u u u u u u u u


a. Someone who has well-controlled diabetes u u u u


b. Someone with hypercholesterolemia u u


c. Someone with a headache u u u


d. Someone with coronary artery disease without angina u u u u u u




ANS: C u


Someone with a headache represents a person with an illness. An illness is made up of the
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


subjective experience of the individual and the physical manifestation of disease. It can be
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


described as a response characterized by a mismatch between a person’s needs and the
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


resources available to meet those needs. A person can have a disease without feeling ill. The
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


other choices represent disease.

6. Which Canadian report is considered to be a landmark document in creating a global
u u u u u u u u u u u u u


u approach to health? u u


a. Population Health Promotion Model u u u


b. Healthy People 2020 u u


c. Framework for Health Promotion in Canada u u u u u


d. World Health Organization Quality of Life u u u u u




ANS: C u


By the mid-1980s, Canada became a world leader in the formulation of health-promotion
u u u u u u u u u u u u


ideals and strategies, particularly with the unveiling of the Framework for Health Promotion
u u u u u u u u u u u u u


in Canada at the first World Health Organization (WHO) conference on health promotion in
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


Ottawa. The overall goal of “achieving health for all” in this report identifies three health
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u

, challenges: reducing inequities, increasing prevention, and enhancing coping. The three
u u u u u u u u u


health-promotion mechanisms to address these challenges are self-care, mutual aid, and
u u u u u u u u u u u


healthy environments. The final component of the framework consists of three
u u u u u u u u u u u


implementation strategies: fostering public participation, strengthening community health
u u u u u u u u


services; and coordinating health public policy.
u u u u u u


Healthy People 2020 is a US-based document to guide planning for health care. The WHO
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


Quality of Life tool is a quality of life measurement tool used by health care workers. The
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


Population Health Promotion Model was developed to provide an overall framework to guide
u u u u u u u u u u u u


health promotion by blending both health promotion and population health concepts.

7. Which of the following is one of the three programs that the Public Health Agency of Canada
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


(PHAC) is focused on for improving the health of Canadians?
u u u u u u u u u u


a. Decreased tobacco use in youth throughout the country u u u u u u u


b. Health promotion and disease prevention u u u u


c. Increased public funding for health insurance u u u u u


d. Decreased hospital re-admission rates u u u




ANS: B u


The aim of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is to promote and protect the health
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


of Canadians through leadership, partnership, innovation, and action in public health. Among
u u u u u u u u u u u u


the agency’s recent plans are three programs: public health infrastructure; health promotion
u u u u u u u u u u u u


and disease prevention; and health security. Choices A, C, and D are possible strategies to
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u


achieve the goals of this program.

8. Which of the following represents a method of primary prevention?
u u u u u u u u u


a. Informational session about healthy lifestyles u u u u


b. Blood pressure screening u u


c. Interventional cardiac catheterization u u


d. Diagnostic cardiac catheterization u u




ANS: A u


Primary prevention precedes disease or dysfunction. It includes health promotion and specific
u u u u u u u u u u u


protection and encourages increased awareness; thus, education about healthy lifestyles fits
u u u u u u u u u u u


this definition. Blood pressure screening does not prevent disease, but instead identifies it.
