    When it comes to defining family many people have many different ways to define family because it means something different to everyone. Overtime the typically family has changed and is much more diverse when it comes to the individuals that make up the family because of beliefs and values. The way that it is defined currently is a family is a set of interacting individual is related by blood, marriage, cohabitation, or adoption who interdependently perform relevant functions by fulfilling expected roles (Edelman & Mandel, 2012).

    • 3 Pages

    do not think that the public health system, with its emphasis on screening and early detection of disease, is making Americans think they are sick when they are not. Early screenings and detection of disease are critical in providing the best possible treatment for those afflicted. Overall health outcomes and survival rate dramatically increase when diseases are detected in their earlier stages, before they have been able to spread throughout the body and/or become more severe. Prevention efforts to further educate the public about how their lifestyle choices affect their health are also valuable tools in reducing the incidence of disease. I think these measures serve to make the public more aware of the possibility of disease so that early detection is possible, but I do not believe that it makes the public become hypochondriacs. I believe that it is better to be informed of possible risk of disease and to reduce the risk of it…
