Health promotion model-in the health promotion model, health is the actualization of inherent and acquired human potential through goal-directed behavior. this client is requesting help to change behaviors, which exemplifies goal-directed behavior change. the ecologic model examines the interaction of agent, host, and environment. health is present when these three variables are in harmony. when harmony is disrupted, illness and disease occur. in the clinical model, health is the absence of disease, and the aim of care by the health professional is to relieve signs and symptoms of the disease. the eudaemonistic model views health as the actualization of a persons potential.
