Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is: D) Individual responsibility can best be viewed through victim blaming.

Explanation:

Health promotion is the process that allows groups of people to get a better grasp of the changes they need to make to improve their healths as individuals and as a community. It has three levels of prevention designed to help people with different realities, from preventing diseases to increase the chances of rehabilitation of the patient.

All of the options (but D) are assumptions of health promotion. Victim blaming, however, is never an option as patients should never be blamed for their conditions.
