A term used to describe wellness. An
individual with quality of life can
enjoyably do the activities of life with
little or no limitation and can function
independently. Individual quality of life
requires a pleasant and supportive
community.
Illness is the ill feeling and/or
symptoms associated with a disease or
circumstances that upset homeostasis
(Stable condition).
• Health varies widely depending on income,
gender, age, and family origin.
• Self-ratings of health have been shown to
be good general indicators of health
status.
• It is evident that many more people in
poor or near-poor income groups are
considered to be fair or poor in health as
opposed to good or excellent.
• Majority women are also likely to be
classified as fair or poor in health
• There is good evidence that older adults
are especially likely to report poor
health and wellness.
