Exploring Psychological Well-being in Healthcare

With a focus on how emotional and cognitive states impact a person's experience of illness and recovery, this project examines the complex relationship between psychological well-being and physical health. The two main goals of the study are to: (1) investigate how a person's psychological state affects how they perceive their general health and well-being, and (2) examine how medical professionals can offer moral, person-centered support, with a special emphasis on the case of Marjory, a patient who is going through psychological distress. A patient's motivation to participate in recovery can be disrupted, physical symptoms can worsen, and quality of life can be compromised by psychological distress, which is characterized by hopelessness, anxiety, and a diminished sense of dignity. By taking a comprehensive approach, this study emphasizes the necessity of moral, compassionate medical procedures that attend to patients' psychological as well as physical needs. Finally, the project aims to advocate for integrative care models that recognize mental health as a foundational component of healing and well-being.
