1 The focus of the Family Health Model is more on the role of family than the health needs of the individual. This answer is not wrong, but not the best answer.
2 The Sunrise Model helps nurses understand the importance of understanding and respecting patients’ cultural health beliefs.
3 The Health Promotion Model focuses on how individuals can achieve changes that promote health; the focus is less on culturally based nutritional habits
4 The Health Beliefs Model focuses on beliefs that people have regarding their health and how they can make changes. This model is useful for patient with illnesses that require lifestyle changes (e.g., diabetes).
