Nurses respond to the physical,emotional,mental,and spiritual dimensions of health.Biological factors include genetic makeup,gender,age,and developmental stage.The risk of breast cancer increases dramatically in women who have a family history of a mother,sister,or daughter with breast cancer.Recently,a genetic marker for this type of breast cancer was discovered.This is an example of biological factors.Personal relationships are more psychosocial in nature; for example,family relationships can facilitate coping.Lifestyle choices involve such health behaviors as choosing not to use tobacco and other substances.Environmental factors involve,for example,environmental pollutants,or the psychosocial environment (a quiet versus a noisy hospital room).
