Protection
Prevention
Promotion
Participation

We reflected on the difference between prevention and promotion.
Prevention are the action taken and promotion are talk and educate the public (condome).

We as proffessionals can educate for example a young couple who doesn`t want to get pregnant by promote  the use of condoms as a prevention and protection. They have to participate and decide if they want to do so.  

Then we focused on determinants of health. We talked about the challenge making people responsible for their health represents. As health care professionals, we can advice people but patients themselves have to take responsability and act for changes as well. 

We should focus on patient and his/her own ressources, own situation. We should consider that conception of health might differ from individual to individual.
