Explanation:

Medical model of abnormality is a set of statements about mental illness that overly focuses on the search for locating biological markers and neuronal correlates of emotional distress, rather than exploring the social and environmental factors of mental health challenges. Through these statements it is possible to determine that mental illness is now seen as a disease and that most mental illness is now considered curable, and furthermore we can state that the medical model provides a framework for treating various mental disorders, however, These treatments must be established by a qualified professional, the patient cannot be responsible for their treatment.
