Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.1K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

1.8K
Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning,...

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:

  • Medical Education
  • Health Professions Education
  • Pedagogy

Background:

  • Active learning enhances student comprehension and problem-solving skills.
  • Educators' reluctance to adopt active learning persists despite its benefits.
  • Understanding perceptions and barriers is crucial for effective implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore health professions educators' perceptions of active learning.
  • To identify barriers hindering the implementation of active learning strategies.

Main Methods:

  • A 25-question survey, adapted from existing instruments, was administered.
  • Demographic questions were included to analyze correlations.
  • 103 health professions educators completed the survey.

Main Results:

  • Positive perceptions of active learning correlated with gender, rank, and employment status.
  • Specific active learning modalities use correlated with gender, degree, rank, and role.
  • Primary barriers included lack of time for material development/class and resistance to change.

Conclusions:

  • US health professions educators generally hold positive views towards active learning.
  • A gap exists between positive perceptions and actual implementation due to resource-intensive barriers.
  • Addressing time constraints and training needs is vital for broader adoption.
