What is the focus of the definition of health in the Ottawa Charter on Health Promotion? a. Health is an outcome. b. Enjoying life is more important than the need to maintain one’s health. c. Health is incorporated into one’s activities of daily living. d. Health is a way to maintain a stable environment. ANS: C The Ottawa Charter definition of health is: “to reach a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, an individual or group must be able to identify and to realize aspirations, to satisfy needs, and to change or cope with the environment.” When using this definition, health is no longer viewed as an outcome (or a state to be reached); rather, health is incorporated into one’s activities of daily living. The view of health as a resource proposes that communities and individuals use this resource to manage and even change their environments.
