What is Primary Level of Prevention
100
Model that states that people's ability to adjust positively to social, mental, and physiological change is the measure of their health. Illness occurs when the person fails to adapt or becomes maladaptive to these changes.
What is Adaptive Model
100

This level of prevention focuses on rehabilitation to help people attain and retain an optimal level of functioning regardless of their disabling condition. The objective of this level is to return the affected individual to a useful place in society, maximize remaining capacities, or both.
What is Tertiary Level of Prevention
200
Health is defined by the absence and illness by the conspicuous presence of signs and symptoms of disease. People who use this model may not seek preventive health services or they may wait until they are very ill to seek care.

It requires a mindful blending of science and subjectivity (Benner et al., 2010; Siegel, 2007).
