What are the three levels of preventive care discussed in the chapter on Health and Wellness?

The three levels of preventive care are primary prevention, secondary prevention, and tertiary prevention. Primary prevention aims to prevent disease before it occurs, secondary prevention focuses on early detection and diagnosis of latent diseases, and tertiary prevention involves rehabilitation and management of chronic conditions.

Primary prevention is implemented before disease onset, focusing on removing risk factors and promoting health to prevent disease development. Secondary prevention targets individuals with latent diseases, using screening tests to detect health issues early, while tertiary prevention is concerned with managing and rehabilitating patients with permanent health conditions to reduce complications and improve quality of life.
