Secondary acute care involves emergency care, acute medical-surgical care, and radiological procedures
for acute problems (e.g., xrays, CT scans).

Tertiary care includes intensive care and subacute care.

Restorative care deals with cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation, sports medicine, spinal cord
injury programs, and home care.

Health promotion programs lower the overall costs of health care by reducing the
incidence of disease, minimizing complications, and thus reducing the need to use more expensive
health care resources. In contrast, preventive care is more disease oriented and is focused on reducing
and controlling risk factors for disease through activities such as immunization and occupational health
programs.
8.
Focus of secondary care is on diagnosis and treatment of disease.
Serves patients recovering from an acute or chronic illness/disability is part of the restorative care.
This maximizes patient function and independence.
Tertiary prevention is defined as care that prevents further progression of disease.
Primary
prevention consists of health-promoting behaviors or activities that reduce the occurrence of an illness.
Secondary
prevention is early diagnosis and treatment of illness (e.g., screening for hypertension).
Health promotion includes
activities that develop human attitudes and behaviors to maintain or enhance well-being.
Restorative care is designed to help the patient reach optimal recovery from disease or injury.
Included in this type of care are cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation, sports medicine, spinal
cord injury
programs, and home care. Secondary acute care involves emergency care, acute medical-surgical care,
and
radiological procedures. Tertiary care includes intensive care and subacute care. Continuing care
involves longterm
assisted living, psychiatric care, and older adult day care.
The goals of restorative care are to help individuals regain maximal functional status and enhance
quality of life through promotion of independence and self-care.
A mastectomy is the removal of the breast, which would affect one’s body image. Therefore, it is a
body image stressor.
“There is still a fat person inside of me.” This type of statement
illustrates a flaw in the self-concept of:Body image.
Because the patient’s statement reflects her looks, this would be a body image issue.
Retirement is a role-performance stressor, as it is related to a lifetime of working, then a sudden
change of no longer being employed.ys,
