You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Models of health promotion and disease prevention

Introduction

Health promotion and disease prevention are among the most influential topics of public health. There are many models that can be applied to this area of work, but examples include:

Self-care

Self-care is a way to prevent and manage your own health. It’s a way to take responsibility for your own health, so you can feel good about yourself and live longer. Self-care includes physical activities and healthy eating; managing stress, getting enough sleep and avoiding alcohol and tobacco.

You can also manage your blood pressure and cholesterol, prevent infections and care for your teeth. Self-care is a way to take responsibility for your own health. You can feel good about yourself and live longer.

Professional services and support

Professional services and support are provided by health care providers, including doctors, nurses, psychologists, dietitians, social workers and pharmacists. This includes helping you to manage your health condition.

The goal is to help you manage your health condition, so that you can get back to your daily life as soon as possible. Your health care team may include:

Lifestyle change

>* Make a list of all the things you can do to improve your health.

>* Choose one thing that you would like to change and make this your goal for the week.

>* Do it!

It may be as simple as going for a walk instead of driving or taking the stairs instead of the elevator, but these small changes can help lead toward other improvements in overall health.

Community-level programs

Community-level programs are those that are implemented and managed by the community for the community. The term “community” refers to a geographic area, or sometimes just an area where members of a certain social group live and work together.

Examples of community-level programs include:

• Community gardens (a garden is shared by many people) * Community kitchens (a kitchen is available to everyone in the neighborhood) * Community health workers (who provide information on health issues) * Prevention programs such as nutrition education campaigns or smoking cessation classes

Model of health promotion and disease prevention

The model of health promotion and disease prevention is a three-part continuum. It encompasses:

• Self-care, which includes behaviors that people can do to maintain their own health (e.g., getting exercise).

• Professional services and support, which include direct care from health professionals or organizations like primary care providers (PCPs) or hospitals. These services may also include information about risk factors for illness or injury; links to resources such as WebMD articles; referrals for other services; access to preventive care services like physical exams, vaccinations etc.; access to emergency rooms when needed – either locally or telephonically if you’re out of town visiting family members who live far away from where you live now but want some peace of mind knowing they’ll be able to get help if anything happens unexpectedly while traveling alone!

• Lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking cigarettes/tobacco products altogether so as not only benefit yourself physically but also save money on medical bills later down road when needed most especially during retirement years when income levels tend low due cost increases due inflation rates causing more individuals unable afford basic necessities like food items required everyday basis.”

Conclusion

In conclusion, the model of health promotion and disease prevention is a framework that offers an effective way to address the needs of populations. The model offers a context for understanding health care disparities and provides guidance on how best to address them. It is not intended as a comprehensive set of recommendations, but rather as a starting point for developing health plans that are informed by evidence-based approaches to health promotion and disease prevention.
