What is the first step in developing case plan outcomes according to the mutuality process?

1. Areas of least resistance

2. Most urgent

3. Greatest impact

4. Review of past interventions

The correct answer is: Most urgent

The first step in developing case plan outcomes according to the mutuality process is to identify and prioritize the most urgent needs or concerns. This involves assessing the individual's current situation and determining which areas require immediate attention and action. While areas of least resistance, greatest impact, and review of past interventions may also be important considerations in developing a case plan, they are not as critical as addressing the most urgent needs first. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate first step in the mutuality process.
