What is the primary goal of tertiary intervention?

Use of systems theory.
Neuman's Health-Care Systems Model is based on the principles of systems theory. The model views individuals as open systems interacting with their environment. Health, illness, and wellness are influenced by dynamic interactions between the client and environmental stressors. This systems-based approach helps nurses understand the holistic nature of clients and their responses to stressors.

Behavior is the key to preventing illness.
This statement does not accurately represent Neuman's Health-Care Systems Model. While behavior and lifestyle choices can influence health, Neuman's model primarily emphasizes the dynamic interactions between individuals and their environment, considering stressors and their impact on the client's stability and well-being.

Nurse-centered rather than client-centered.
Neuman's model is client-centered. It focuses on the client's responses to environmental stressors and aims to assist clients in maintaining their optimal wellness within the context of their environment. It is not nurse-centered; instead, it empowers clients to actively participate in their own care.

Alteration of environmental stressors leads to health.
While addressing environmental stressors is a component of Neuman's model, it does not directly state that altering these stressors leads to health. The model emphasizes understanding the client's response to stressors and helping them achieve stability despite these stressors.

An individual who is responsible for his or her health care: While client responsibility is a concept in healthcare, it is not the primary focus of Johnson's Behavioral System Model. The model primarily focuses on the client as a dynamic system.

A behavioral system that is an integrated whole: This statement is partly correct; however, it doesn't fully capture the essence of Johnson's model. Johnson does focus on behavioral systems, but the model is more comprehensive, considering the client as a dynamic entity with inputs, processes, and outputs.

A dynamic entity with both input and output: This accurately reflects the essence of Johnson's Behavioral System Model. In this model, the client is seen as a dynamic system that processes inputs (stimuli from the internal and external environment) and produces outputs (responses or behaviors). The interactions between these inputs and outputs determine the client's adaptation and overall health.

An individual who must adapt to illness: While adaptation is a central concept in Johnson's model, it doesn't solely focus on illness adaptation. It encompasses a broader view of the individual's behavioral responses to various stimuli and stressors in both health and illness contexts.
