 Conclusion

Health is more than just the absence of illness; it is an active process in

which a person moves toward his or her maximum potential. The nurse's knowledge of health and illness
is even more important because of today's focus on health promotion and advocacy, the continuing trend
towards care being provided in the home and community, the increasing numbers of older adults, the
growing incidence of chronic illnesses, and the ongoing efforts to maximize health care outcomes for all
populations. older adults, the growing incidence of chronic illnesses, and the ongoing efforts to maximize
