consists of diagnosis and treatment
SECONDARY PREVENTION
consists of rehabilitation, health restoration and palliative
TERTIARY PREVENTION
WHO developed a project called
Healthy People
The current US DOH and Human Services (2020) that evolved the original work is called
Healthy People 2020
Healthy People 2020 has four overcharging goals:

TERTIARY PREVENTION (Rehabilitation, health restoration, and palliative care)
Studies the structure of the cell and the component
parts; the detailed study of man.
THE ATOMISTIC APPROACH
− Views man as an organism composed of different
systems, each system composed of organs and each
organ made up of tissue cells.
THE ATOMISTIC APPROACH
Provides fundamental framework on which one can
base his perception/observation of the total behavior
of man in relation to society
THE HOLISTIC APPROACH
Traces patterns of man’s relationship with other
beings in the supersystem of society.
THE HOLISTIC APPROACH
Views man as a whole organism with interrelated
and interdependent parts functioning to produce
behavior unacceptable to him or to society.
THE HOLISTIC APPROACH
Man is a living organism who from birth destined to
die
MAN AS A BIOLOGICAL BEING
Because the cells, organs, and systems are found
within the individual, they comprise the subordinate
system of man; while
MAN AS A BIOLOGICAL BEING
The family, community and society consist of bigger
units of man called
superordinate system.
of man is important in
carrying out daily activities vital to survival
The subordinate system
provides man with the
necessary framework of relationships which links him
to the family, community and the society.
The subordinate system
− Man normally responds as a
unified whole
Man as a whole is different from and more than the
sum of his component parts.
− Refers to those observable features and actions that
reflect man’s functioning as a unified whole within the
environment in which he exists.
ORGANISMIC BEHAVIOR
Man is an
open system
He is composed of subsystems which acts as
unified whole; therefore, what affects one subsystem
affects the other subsystem/s within the set.
MAN AS A SYSTEM
Man is “a unique irreplaceable individual, a onetime being in this world”.
MAN AS A PSYCHOSOCIAL BEING
Man, the psychosocial being is capable of rational,
logical thinking most of the time but can be irrational

being.”
− Humans are bipedal primates (Latin: “wise man” or
“knowing man”).
− Humans are capable of abstract reasoning, language,
and introspection.
MAN AS BIOLOGICAL BEING
is the central part of human body.
Brain
controls different mechanisms like
secretions of hormones, motivation and moods, etc.
Hypothalamus
include the inherited characters,
that help in the development of human beings.
Biological factors
Some characters are inherited in humans like
aggression, feelings, attitudes, behavior, emotions,
height, color and so on
MAN AS BIOLOGICAL BEING
The brain perceives the external world through
senses, and each individual is influenced by his or her
experiences, leading to a
subjective view of
existence
Humans are variously said to possess
consciousness, self-awareness
Humans are social by nature and adept at utilizing
systems of communication for self-expression, the
exchange of ideas and organization

composed of cooperating and competing groups,
ranging from small families and partnership to
political, scientific and economic unions.

traditions, rituals, ethics, values, social norms, and
laws which form the basis of human society.
