Registered Practical Nurse (RPN) Practice Test

The Recovery model supports which of the following aspects of recovery?

1. Individual potential for recovery

2. Limited patient input

3. Strict treatment protocols

4. Minimization of personal challenges

The correct answer is: Individual potential for recovery

The Recovery model emphasizes the importance of an individual’s potential for recovery, which is integral to promoting a holistic and personalized approach to mental health and well-being. This model acknowledges that each person has unique experiences, strengths, and abilities that can be leveraged in their recovery journey. It supports the idea that recovery is not just about symptom relief but also involves personal growth, empowerment, and achieving life goals that align with an individual’s values. Focusing on the individual potential for recovery empowers patients to take an active role in their treatment. This autonomy fosters hope and motivation, encouraging individuals to engage with their recovery process more meaningfully. They can set their own goals and make choices that resonate with their personal values and lifestyle. In contrast, limited patient input, strict treatment protocols, and minimization of personal challenges do not align with the core principles of the Recovery model. These alternatives often restrict the patient’s voice and agency, which can negatively impact their motivation and engagement in the recovery process. The Recovery model seeks to create an environment conducive to personal agency, collaboration, and respect for the individual’s unique recovery path.
