You work at an outpatient TBI clinic. You are creating an eight-week cooking group.  The purpose of your group is to provide members with functional skills to safely complete simple meal prep tasks (long term goal: Members will independently complete a simple meal prep task by the end of the last session).   A new kitchen tool or appliance will be introduced during the first seven sessions.  Recipes will increase in difficulty over the course of the group to incorporate skills learned in previous sessions.  The final session will provide members an opportunity to attempt to independently follow a recipe.  Observations made during the final session will allow you assess each member’s level of independence in completing a simple meal prep task.  This information will be used to make discharge recommendations for each member. Which short term goal below is written in SMART format and relates directly to the purpose of your group?

You are leading a cooking group in an outpatient traumatic brain injury facility. You have four group members.  All members are between ACLS level 4.0-4.8.  Each participant has demonstrated the ability to gather supplies, sit at a table, and make a peanut butter sandwich.  In order to challenge the participants, you decide to introduce a homemade bread recipe.  You are hoping to improve socialization between the members by using a collaborative approach to complete the task.  Each patient will have a different step in the task. Using a sensorimotor approach, match the patient job responsibility that would likely be most difficult for each patient.
