Question

In 200-300 words use Pender's Health Promotion Model to plan a health promotion campaign for a wellness program for employees in a manufacturing company

Answer 1

Health :-

state of complete physical, emotional, mental and social well-being; it is a positive dynamic state, not merely the absence of disease

Health promotion :-

activities such as good nutrition and exercise that help patient maintain good health.

Pender's Health Promotion Model :-

examines the multi-dimensional nature of persons as they interact within their environment to pursue health; focuses on 3 main areas

3 Focus Areas of Pender's Model :-

1. Cognitive Perceptual Factors- how person perceives different aspects of their health

2. Modifying Factors- things that affect the person's perception of their health

3. Participation in health promotion behavior- likelihood of engaging in health promoting behaviors (affected by cues to action.

While I will organise the health promotion campaign for the wellness of employees ,I would totally focus on the focus areas of penders health promotion model and these people interact with the environment in their day to day life in personal and professional life .

To assess their interaction with environmental factors , I will use questionnaire to know about the perspective of health , health promotion and disease prevention . After assessing their perspective I will go ahead to find out the factors which has an impact on the perception of health . At last measures will be taken to improve the perception which are wrong about health and will engage the employees in the health promotion behaviour because when we actually do a thing then only we get to know about that so practical experience is best for new initiatives .
