Wellness in psychiatric rehabilitation is a multidimensional concept that encompasses physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being, guided by recovery principles. The CPRP Exam Blueprint (Domain VII: Supporting Health & Wellness) includes supporting individuals in finding meaning and purpose as a key component of wellness (Task VII.A.1: "Promote holistic wellness, including purpose and meaning in life"). Option C (purpose in life) aligns with this task, as having a sense of purpose—through roles, goals, or activities—is a recognized dimension of wellness that fosters resilience and recovery.
Option A (compliance with medication) is a clinical strategy, not a core component of wellness, though it may support health (Domain VII). Option B (avoidance of stress) is impractical and not explicitly listed as a wellness dimension, as wellness involves managing, not eliminating, stress. Option D (absence of illness) is inaccurate, as wellness is not defined by the absence of illness but by positive attributes like purpose, relationships, and self-management, even in the presence of symptoms. The PRA Study Guide, referencing models like SAMHSA’s Eight Dimensions of Wellness, includes purpose as a key element, supporting Option C.
