Explanation:

Analyze the core principles of client-provider partnerships

In community support services and recovery-oriented care, the partnership between client and provider is built on empowerment, purposeful collaboration, and the sole benefit of helping the individual achieve their self-determined goals.

Evaluate the options against recovery-oriented care

• Sole benefit of helping the individual achieve goals: This is a core characteristic of a professional helping relationship.
• Work done together should be purposeful: This is a fundamental characteristic of goal-directed care.
• Encouraging confidence, self-assurance, and choice: This represents empowerment, which is central to the partnership.
• Minimizing risk of failure by only choosing high-probability goals: This contradicts the recovery model, which supports dignity of risk and self-determination, allowing clients to choose their own goals even if they carry a risk of failure.

Answer:

• The relationship is for the sole benefit of helping the individual achieve their goals
• Minimizing risk of failure by only choosing goals that have a high probability of success (Correct answer)
• The work done together should be purposeful
• A relationship that encourages individuals to feel more confident in their skills, increases their self-assurance and allows them to act on the choices and decisions they make.
