“…If we return to the core policy document of health promotion, the Ottawa Charter [7], one of the strategies for health development was reorienting health services. This approach appears to have received little attention, and its development has been particularly slow [65][66][67]. With a salutogenic perspective on health care, the focus on both patients and professionals can be strengthened.…”

BackgroundWellness is a holistic, multidimensional, and process‐oriented property on a continuum. It has been used interchangeably with and is undifferentiated from concepts such as health and well‐being without an in‐depth clarification of its theoretical foundations and a reflection on its meaning. The concept of wellness is frequently used, but its definition remains unclear.AimTo conceptually and theoretically explore the concept of wellness to contribute to a deeper understanding in caring science.MethodRodgers' evolutionary concept analysis was applied to the theoretical investigation of data from publications of international origins. The focus was on antecedents, attributes, consequences, surrogate and related terms, and contextual references. A literature search was performed through a manual review of reference lists and an online search in CINAHL and PubMed via EBSCO, and in ProQuest. Abstracts were examined to identify relevant studies for further review. The inclusion criteria were peer‐reviewed papers in English; papers published in scientific journals using the surrogate terms ‘wellness’, ‘health’, ‘health care’, and ‘health care and wellness’; and papers discussing and/or defining the concept of wellness. Twenty‐six studies met the inclusion criteria.ResultsBased on the findings from this concept analysis, a definition of wellness was developed: ‘a holistic and multidimensional concept represented on a continuum of being well that goes beyond health’. Implications for nursing practice were correspondingly presented.ConclusionWellness is defined as a holistic and comprehensive multidimensional concept represented on a continuum of being well, that goes beyond health. It calls attention by applying the salutogenic perspective to health promotion in caring science. It is strongly related to individual lifestyle and health behaviour and is frequently used interchangeably with health and well‐being without an in‐depth clarification of its theoretical foundation.

“…Consequently, workplace well-being has become a measure of the absence of mental health disorders. A salutogenic approach 24 25 that measures positive determinants, context, mechanisms, and individual and group well-being should be preferred when considering doctor well-being. 26…”

Objectives: To develop a core outcome set (COS) to capture and measure the well-being of doctors working in the NHS. Design: An online Delphi study. Setting: United Kingdom National Health Service. Participants: Participants from four stakeholder groups: i) those who might use the COS in research, ii) organisations that measure/capture NHS staff wellbeing, iii) professionals with experience managing NHS staff wellbeing, and iv) NHS doctors, were identified through authorship of relevant publications, attendee lists of doctor well-being conferences and meetings, professional bodies, participation in a previous study and recommendations from others. They were recruited via email. Method: A two-stage process: 1) creating a list of 43 wellbeing outcomes informed by a systematic review of wellbeing measurement instruments, a survey of UK doctors and 2 doctor engagement workshops, and 2) an online modified Delphi study (with two rounds) to reach consensus. Outcomes were rated on a 9-point Likert scale; consensus was reached when ≤75% agreed that an outcome was critical for inclusion in the COS. Results: Fifty-two participants completed both Delphi rounds. Seven wellbeing outcomes met the threshold for inclusion in the COS: General wellbeing, Health, Personal safety, Job satisfaction, Morale, Life work balance, and Good clinical practice. Conclusion: Use of the COS has the potential to reduce heterogeneity and standardise the capture and measurement of doctor well-being and ensure outcomes important to all stakeholders are reported. Trial registration: This study was prospectively registered with the COMET initiative www.comet-initiative.org (Registration: 1577)

“…The thoughts of Aaron Antonovsky (1979) followed a similar path, when in the 1970s he studied the adaptation to the climacteric among women of Jewish origin who survived the atrocities of extermination camps during World War II. The sociologist discovered with amazement that less than twenty years after the trauma of the Holocaust, as many as 29% of the women surveyed led a satisfying life, maintaining a relatively high level of somatic and mental health (Cierpiałkowska, Sęk, 2019;Espnes, Moksnes, Haugan, 2021). Analysing the results of these studies, Antonovsky showed a certain perversity, thus setting out a new paradigm in thinking about health -the salutogenetic orientation.…”

The presented paper analyses the interdependencies between the meaning of life and health. The noo-psychotheoretical concepts derived from the logotherapeutic trend of Victor Frankl (1984, 2009, 2018) and the phenomenon of health in salutogenetic orientation by Aaron Antonovsky (1979, 1992, 2005) have been compared. As a result, the importance of a sense of meaning in the process of achieving health and the essence of the sense of meaning as one of the elements of health have been outlined.
