Correct Answer

Answered by ExamLex AI

Answered by ExamLex AI

The three service delivery models are the medical model, the social model, and the holistic model. In the medical model, the view of the problem is that it is a medical issue that requires diagnosis and treatment by a healthcare professional. The recipient of services is seen as a patient who is seeking medical intervention for their condition. The worker in this model is typically a doctor or other healthcare professional who is trained to diagnose and treat medical conditions. The goal of the medical model is to provide medical treatment to alleviate the symptoms and cure the illness. The treatment in this model is focused on medical interventions such as medication, surgery, or other medical procedures. In the social model, the view of the problem is that it is a result of social and environmental factors that impact the individual's well-being. The recipient of services is seen as a person who is affected by social and environmental factors such as poverty, discrimination, or lack of access to resources. The worker in this model is typically a social worker or community organizer who is trained to address social and environmental issues. The goal of the social model is to address the social and environmental factors that contribute to the problem and to empower the individual to advocate for their rights and access resources. The treatment in this model is focused on social interventions such as advocacy, community organizing, and access to resources. In the holistic model, the view of the problem is that it is a result of a combination of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual factors that impact the individual's well-being. The recipient of services is seen as a whole person who requires support in all aspects of their life. The worker in this model is typically a holistic health practitioner or therapist who is trained to address the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the individual. The goal of the holistic model is to address the whole person and to support their overall well-being. The treatment in this model is focused on holistic interventions such as nutrition, exercise, counseling, and spiritual practices. In summary, the medical model focuses on medical interventions for diagnosed conditions, the social model focuses on addressing social and environmental factors, and the holistic model focuses on addressing the whole person's well-being. Each model has its own unique approach to service delivery based on its view of the problem, the recipient of services, the worker, the goals, and the treatment.
