The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

    Area of Science:

    • Public Health
    • Environmental Ethics
    • Health Equity

    Background:

    • Environmental health equity (EHE) is crucial for population well-being, addressing disparities in environmental exposures.
    • Vulnerable communities often face unequal protection from environmental hazards, linked to social determinants of health (SDOH) and environmental racism.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To conduct a concept analysis of Environmental Health Equity (EHE).
    • To examine the utility and conditions surrounding EHE for application in public health, nursing, environmental ethics, policy, and interprofessional collaboration.

    Main Methods:

    • A concept analysis using the eight-step method by Walker and Avant (2011).
    • Inclusion of empirical and descriptive literature to identify defining attributes of EHE.

    Main Results:

    • Identification of defining attributes for Environmental Health Equity (EHE).
    • Establishment of operationalized standards for EHE through concept analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • Clarifying the concept of EHE is essential for evaluating inequities and their impact on population health.
    • This analysis provides a framework for assessing EHE in diverse populations and informing policy decisions.
