Which action represents the sixth step of a home visit?

• A. Home visit with follow-up with necessary referral
• B. Be observant of surroundings
• C. Residence Verification (physically/Virtually)
• D. Engaging with client

Answer: (A)

The action at the end of a home visit flow is to conduct the visit with a plan for follow-up and any necessary referrals. This sixth step represents moving from gathering information and assessing needs to taking concrete next steps that connect the client with services and monitor progress. It shows you’re not just collecting data in the moment but actively coordinating resources and setting up support to address issues identified during the visit.

Earlier actions—being observant of surroundings, engaging with the client, and verifying the residence—are essential parts of the process that build safety, trust, and accurate information. They lay the groundwork for a targeted plan, which is then carried out through a follow-up and referral.
