Research the health-illness continuum and its relevance to patient care. In a 750-1,000-word
paper, discuss the relevance of the continuum to patient care and present a holistic perspective of
your current state of health in relation to the wellness spectrum by including the following:
1. Examine the health-illness continuum and discuss why this perspective is important to
consider in relation to health and the human experience when caring for patients.
2. Explain how understanding the health-illness continuum enables you, as a health care
provider, to better promote the value and dignity of individuals or groups and to serve
others in ways that promote human flourishing and are consistent with the Christian
worldview.
3. Reflect on your overall state of health from a holistic perspective. Discuss what behaviors
support or detract from your health, well-being, and self-care. Explain where you currently
fall on the health-illness continuum. Describe how you might improve your self-care
practices and overall wellness using evidence-based strategies.
4. Discuss at least two specific options and resources available to you in your community or
virtually to help you move toward wellness on the health-illness spectrum. Describe how
these would assist in moving you toward wellness (managing a chronic disease, recovering
from an illness, self-actualization, etc.).
