1. The nurse knows the World Health Organization defines health in which of the following
terms?
a. The absence of disease
b. The lack of infirmity
c. Complete well-being
d. Being independent of fiscal responsibility
ANS: C
The World Health Organization offers a definition for health: ―a state of complete physical,
mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.‖ Nurses are
responsible for helping patients reach their optimal levels of physiologic and mental health,
but they also must provide health care in a system that requires cost containment and fiscal
responsibility.

a. Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs
b. Health Belief Model
c. Health Promotion Model
d. Holistic Health Model
ANS: A
Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs describes the relationships between the basic requirements for
survival and the desires that drive personal growth and development. The model is most often
presented as a pyramid consisting of five levels. The lowest level is related to physiologic
needs, and the uppermost level is associated with self-actualization needs, specifically those
related to purpose and identity. The Health Belief Model was developed by psychologists
Hochbaum, Rosenstock, and Kegels. It explores how patients‘ attitudes and beliefs predict
health behavior. The Health Promotion Model, developed by Pender and colleagues, defines
health as a positive, dynamic state of well-being rather than the absence of disease in the
physiologic state. Holistic health models in nursing care are based on the philosophy that a
synergistic relationship exists between the body and the environment. Holistic care is an
approach to applying healing therapies. Holistic models focus on the interrelatedness of body
and mind.
