We have all heard the statement “put your mask on first”, and this holds true for health promotion and disease prevention. In order to be an effective advocate of healthy living one must model behaviors for others. In this assignment you will design a personal self-care preventive plan to address any area in your life which you deem potentially at risk for disease.
