Can someone please help me summerize this, with paraphrasing.?
Over the last fifty years, a change has emerged in the way health care practitioners understand the factors that prevent chronic disease and lead to good health. Before that, it was largely considered a matter of bio-medical cause and effect, coupled with negative lifestyle choices. Health professionals began to see that good health and disease prevention are a lot more than that.
In 1948, The World Health Organization declared that, more than the absence of disease, health is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." And later in 1986, the Ottawa Charter For Health Promotion declared that health is " created and lived by people within the settings of their everyday life; where they learn, work, play and love."
These declaration tell us that there are a large number of social factors and conditions, including income, employment, education, housing and others that lead to healthy people and communities.
In 1998, Health Canada developed a comprehensive list of those factors calling them the Determinants of Health: income, social support, education and literacy, employment and working conditions, social environments, physical environments, personal health practices and coping skills, healthy child development, biology and genetic endowment, health services, gender, and culture.
These factors come together like streams to form a flowing river to help us reach a state of complete physical, mental, and social well being.
Thank you Emily. This is actually the sample, not the assignment. I dont understand how to paraphrase properly.
