After determining that the individual is ready for rehabilitation, which of the following is the next best step?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Once rehabilitation readiness is confirmed, the next step is to establish a person-centered foundation for planning. The CPRP Exam Blueprint (Domain IV: Assessment, Planning, and Outcomes) specifies that identifying the individual's expressed goals follows readiness assessment to ensure plans reflect their aspirations (Task IV.A.1: 'Conduct functional assessments to identify individual goals and strengths'). Option C (identifying the individual's expressed goals) aligns with this, as it involves eliciting the individual's priorities (e.g., employment, housing) to guide subsequent assessments and interventions.

Option A (determining domains) and Option B (routines for change) are part of functional assessment, which follows goal identification. Option D (review behavioral skills) is premature without knowing the goals. The PRA Study Guide highlights goal identification as the next step post-readiness, supporting Option C.

Reviewing behavioral skills seems relevant, but I wonder if we need to clarify their goals first to make it effective.

I feel like assessing routines is important, but I can't recall if it should be done before or after identifying goals.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think determining the domains for change might come after we know their goals.

I think the next step should be identifying the individual's expressed goals, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the first thing we should do.
