Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. All people entering a healthcare profession do so with a personal or culturally based concept of health that will probably change during their education. It is important to consider this when working with patients.
2. Forcing patients to accept a medical definition of health is contrary to providing culturally appropriate care.
3. Accepting a prevailing definition of health, and applying it to patients, is not giving culturally appropriate care.
4. It is not necessary to share patients' views of health and illness, but to understand them to provide appropriate care.

2. Preventive healthcare is vital to a culture of health.
3. Health definitions vary among individuals, and for healthcare providers, health becomes clearer through education.
