Question

an action step always includes:

specific red flags to indicate if there is movement in the wrong direction
a focus on behaviors that require action
specific things that will be done to meet an objective
both professional and community evaluators

Explanation:

Analyze the definition of an action step

In treatment planning (such as KDADS CBS-CSS services), an action step represents the concrete, specific tasks or activities that the client, provider, or support system will perform to achieve a defined treatment objective.

Evaluate the given options

• "Specific red flags to indicate if there is movement in the wrong direction": This describes crisis triggers or warning signs, not action steps.
• "A focus on behaviors that require action": This is too vague and describes target behaviors rather than the steps to address them.
• "Specific things that will be done to meet an objective": This directly aligns with the definition of an action step as the specific, actionable tasks designed to accomplish a goal or objective.
• "Both professional and community evaluators": This is irrelevant to the definition of an individual action step.

Answer:

• Specific red flags to indicate if there is movement in the wrong direction
• A focus on behaviors that require action
• Specific things that will be done to meet an objective (Correct answer)
• Both professional and community evaluators
