Scenario:
Identifying the Barrier

You’ve set up a self-directed activity on functional reaching for a survivor, placing a few lightweight objects on their bedside table for practice. During your next visit, you find the items have been moved to a closed drawer. The nursing assistant explains that they moved the items to clear the surface for a meal tray and forgot to put them back, noting that "the room needs to stay clear for safety anyway."

​

Which systemic roadblock is primarily illustrated in this scenario?

A) Operational Standards: Because the facility has no formal billing code for environment setup.

B) Restrictive Safety Cultures: Because a "risk-free" bedside environment is being prioritized over the survivor's opportunity for self-directed activity.

​

C) Resource & Personnel Barriers: Because the patient was not assertive enough to ask for the items back.
