Introduction
Health, wellness, and well-being have many definitions and interpretations. The nurse should be familiar with the most common aspects of the concepts and consider how they may be individualized with specific clients.

Health
There is no consensus (agreement) about any definition of health. There is knowledge of how to attain (reach) a certain level of health, but health itself cannot be measured.
Traditionally health has been defined in terms of the presence or absence of disease.
Nightingale defined health as a state of being well and using every power the individual possesses to the fullest extent
![Page 5: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health
as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
![Page 6: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
the American Nurses Association defined healtha dynamic state of being in
which the developmental and behavioral potential (possible) of an individual is realized to the fullest extent possible
![Page 7: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Most people define and describe health as the following:
Being free from symptoms of disease and pain as much as possible.
Being able to be active and to do what they want or must.
Being in good spirits most of the time.
![Page 8: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Wellness & Well-Being
Wellness further describes health status. It allows health to be placed on a continuum from one’s optimal level (“wellness”) to a maladaptive state (“illness”)
![Page 9: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Wellness is a dynamic process that is ever changing. The well person usually has some degree of illness and the ill person usually has some degree of wellness.
![Page 10: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
This concept of a health continuum negates the idea that wellness and illness are opposite because they may occur simultaneously in the same person in varying degrees
![Page 11: Concepts of Health, Wellness, & Well-Being. After the end of this chapter the student will be able to: Differentiate health, wellness, and well-being.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649d9d5503460f94a87679/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The classic description of wellness was developed by Dunn in the early 1960s. According to Dunn (1961), high-level wellness means functioning to one’s maximum health potential while remaining in balance with the environment.

Well-being
"Well-being is a subjective perception of vitality (energy) and feeling well.....can be described objectively, experienced, and measured......and can be plotted ( design) on a continuum". It is a component of health.
