Answer to Question 1

A
In a broad view of health, the nurse recognizes the impact of family, friends, culture, and environment on the patient, who exists within a relationship with each of these components. Thus, each part of the patient's life can be harnessed as a supportive resource for the patient.
Alternative practices are not specifically addressed in a broader view of health and illness. Furthermore, holistic does not mean alternative, although many people have this impression.
The broader view of health considers that mind, body, and spirit are all interrelated and that the patient's family, friends, culture, and environment have effects on the patient that cannot be ignored; it is not related to patients' definitions of health and illness.
The broader view of health is not necessarily a way to avoid overlooking issues of importance to patients.

Answer to Question 2

C
The eudaemonistic model of health emphasizes human growth and depicts health as total development of the human, which is analogous to Maslow's stage of self-actualization.
The eudaemonistic model would not specifically focus on a broad range of feelings about health.
The ease of making health care changes is not related directly to models of health.
The nurse using the eudaemonistic model of health would not specifically be interested in the importance of health in people's lives.
