A nurse is assessing a client to determine level of wellness. The client practices yoga for relaxation several times a week, follows a nutritionally sound diet, and has a supportive, sound relationship with a spouse and several children

Based on this data, which does this client exemplify?
A) An emergent high level of wellness in an unfavorable environment.
B) A high level of wellness in a favorable environment.
C) Protected poor health in a favorable environment.
D) An emergent high level of wellness in a favorable environment.


Answer: B

A high level of wellness in a favorable environment involves biopsychosocial, spiritual, and economic resources that support healthy lifestyles. This client meets those criteria. The client is not emerging into high-level wellness; she has already achieved it. An emergent high-level of wellness in an unfavorable environment would be exemplified by a client who has the knowledge to implement healthy lifestyles but does not implement them because of family responsibilities, job demands, or other factors. The client does not have any health problems and therefore does not fit the description of protected poor health.
