Assessing rehabilitation readiness involves understanding an individual’s motivation, confidence, and personal drivers for pursuing recovery goals. The CPRP Exam Blueprint (Domain IV: Assessment, Planning, and Outcomes) includes identifying personal preferences and values as part of readiness assessment to determine an individual’s preparedness for goal-setting (Task IV.A.2: "Assess individual’s stage of change and readiness for goal-setting"). Option C (rehabilitation readiness) aligns with this, as preferences and values (e.g., what matters most to the individual, such as family or independence) inform their willingness and motivation to engage in rehabilitation activities.

Option A (resource needs) focuses on external supports, not personal values. Option B (mental health status) pertains to clinical symptoms, not preferences or readiness. Option D (skill functioning) assesses abilities, not motivational factors like values. The PRA Study Guide emphasizes that understanding preferences and values is critical for assessing readiness, supporting Option C.
