description: '**Concept**\r\nIn nearly all cases, a lengthy or life-threatening illness is a traumatic experience for the patient and their environment. Every patient deals with this in their own way. The way in which a person deals with problems and stress is also referred to as coping. Illness perception entails both the way the patient sees their situation and the way in which the patient and their environment deal with the situation (coping strategies).n\r\n**Purpose**\r\nInformation on the extent of the insight of the patient and their environment into the consequences of their disease enables nurses to properly support the patient and their family in learning to deal with the illness or health problem.\r\n**Example Instances**'
