Pervasive healthcare and citizen-centered care paradigm are moving the healthcare outside the hospital environment. Healthcare\r\ndelivery is becoming more personalized and decentralized, focusing on prevention and proactive services with a complete view of\r\nhealth and wellbeing. The concept of wellness has been used to describe this holistic view of health, which focuses on physical,\r\nsocial, and mental well-being. Pervasive computing makes it possible to collect information and offer services anytime and\r\nanywhere. To support pervasive healthcare with wellness approaches, semantic interoperability is needed between all actors and\r\ninformation sources in the ecosystem. This study focuses on the domain of personal wellness and analyzes related concepts,\r\nrelationships, and environments. As a result of this study, we have created an information model that focuses on the citizens�\r\nperspectives and conceptualizations of personal wellness. The model has been created based on empirical research conducted with\r\nfocus groups.
