Bio-medical model of health

?

Biomedical model of health

Advantages

  • It encourages research into illness, rather than assuming nothing can be done
  • The knowledge of causes helps us to avoid illness
  • Many successful treatments have been developed as a result of research

Disadvantages

  • It ignores the view that health and illness are relative and are socially constructed
  • Coward (1989) points out that it suggests health problems are individual and ignores the social factors which can cause illness.
  • It focuses too much on treatment, rather than prevention
  • Gives too much power to medical professionals.
  • Iatrogenesis could be used as a disadvantage because it states that the illness is actually brought on by the healer.

Evaluation

Over all, the biomedical model has a lot more disadvantages than advantages, however I feel like because Sociology is such an opinion based subject, you can't really say whether something is correct or incorrect. In the next comparison, Ii will be talking about the social model of health which is the opposite to the bio-medical model.

They are good points but I think that you need to explain each point more.
