(20 cards)
health
a quality, an ability to adapt to change, or a resource to help cope with challenges and processes of daily living
well-being
a subjective perception of full functional ability as a human being
providing essential input to interdisciplinary programs
EX: dental caries data dentist
evaluating health trends and risk factors
EX: COVID contract tracing in 2019-20
working with communities or specific population groups within the community
EX: collaborating with leaders to find mutually agreed-upon goals
participating in assessing and evaluating healthcare services
EX: patient feedback, peer review
healthy people initiatives (HP2030)
GOALS:
increase quality and years of healthy life
eliminate any barriers to accessing care, specifically through health disparities
primary prevention
maximizing health and wellness through strategies that are set in place before illness or injury is present
EX:
water fluoridation (improve dental)
breastfeeding newborn (give antibodies to prevent infection)
healthy school lunches for children (prevent obesity)
prophylactic bilaterally mastectomy (NO DISEASE- doing it to prevent cancer)
secondary prevention
maximizing health and wellness through strategies that are set in place at the early and active chronic stage of the pathogenesis of illness and injury
EX:
mammography (screening)
BP and pulse screening at wellness visit (screening)
tertiary prevention
maximizing health and wellness through strategies that are set in place at the palliation and end stage of disease and injury trajectories
EX: (most medication)
antiemetic meds to a cancer patient before nausea occurs
sublingual nitro for MI (known cardiac injury)
long-acting pain medication
behavior models
models that assist clients, groups, and communities to redirect activities toward health and wellness (involves “CHANGE” a tough thing to do…
health belief model
1) perceived severity of the potential illness or physical change
2) perceived susceptibility
3)perceived benefits of taking preventative action
4) perceived challenged that may be faced in taking action toward the goal of health promotion
KEY: they may be facing a mild illness BUT if its perceived to be a major issue to them then they will take action
transtheoretical model
there are STEPS involved in behavioral change activity
health literacy (institutions should have a social obligation to improve health literacy)
ability to understand and use health information to make informed decisions and take appropriate actions to maintain or improve one’s health
-information literate
-visually literate
-communication literate
-computationally literate
-analytically literate
-computer literate
health literacy-roles of a nurse
-establishing a supportive learning environment
-encourage questions
KEY CONCEPTS
national goals and directives to maintain the health of individuals, families, and communities are important road maps for healthcare professionals
three levels of prevention assist health professionals in advancing the quality of life and health through the natural history of disease and disability
identifying modifiable risk and using health promotion models to address changes in behaviors, beliefs, attitudes, and intentions, can significantly increase the health of individuals, families, and communities
health literacy involves three levels; functional, interactive, and critical, all of which must be addresses to improve individual and public health
health literacy, health education, and health promotion are interrelated and collective work to support health self-management, effective provider-client communication and collaboration, and community engagement and activism to address the social determents of health and achieve health equity
