Chapter 11: The Recovery Model
Multiple Choice
A nursing instructor is teaching about recovery as it applies to mental illness. Which student
statement indicates that further teaching is needed?
1. “The goal of recovery is improved health and wellness.”
2. “The goal of recovery is expedient, comprehensive behavioral change.”
3. “The goal of recovery is the ability to live a self-directed life.”
4. “The goal of recovery is the ability to reach full potential.”
ANS: 2
Rationale: The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)
defines recovery from mental health disorders and substance use disorders as a process of
change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life,
and strive to reach their full potential. Change in recovery is not an expedient process. It occurs
incrementally over time.
Cognitive Level: Application
Integrated Process: Evaluation
2. Which situation presents an example of the basic concept of a recovery model?
3. The client‟s family is encouraged to make decisions in order to facilitate discharge.
4. A social worker, discovering the client‟s income, changes the
client‟s discharge placement.
5. A psychiatrist prescribes an antipsychotic drug based on observed symptoms.
6. A client diagnosed with schizophrenia schedules follow-up appointments and group
therapy.
ANS: 4
Rationale: The basic concept of a recovery model is empowerment of the consumer. The
recovery model is designed to allow consumers primary control over decisions about their
own care.
Cognitive Level: Analysis
Integrated Process: Evaluation
3. A nursing instructor is teaching about the guiding principles of the recovery model,
as described by the SAMHSA. Which student statement indicates that further
teaching is needed?
4. “Recovery occurs via many pathways.”
5. “Recovery emerges from strong religious affiliations.”
6. “Recovery is supported by peers and allies.”
7. “Recovery is culturally based and influenced.”
ANS: 2
Rationale: SAMHSA lists the following as guiding principles for the recovery model: recovery
emerges from hope, recovery is person-driven, recovery occurs via many pathways, recovery
is holistic, recovery is supported by peers and allies, recovery is supported through relationship
and social networks, recovery is culturally based and influenced, recovery is supported by
addressing trauma, recovery involves individual, family, and community strengths and
responsibility, recovery is based on respect. Recovery emerges from hope but affiliation with
any particular religion would have little bearing on the recovery process. [Show Less]
