Which option does not align with safe home-visit practice?

• A. Conduct visits with safety planning and awareness of surroundings
• B. Have a partner present when appropriate
• C. Skip safety planning and visit alone in an unfamiliar area
• D. Schedule visits with a known route

Answer: (C)

Safe home-visit practice centers on preventing harm by preparing for the environment and ensuring support. Conducting visits with safety planning and awareness of surroundings helps you spot potential hazards and react appropriately. Having a partner present when appropriate adds backup and increases safety, especially in uncertain settings. Scheduling visits with a known route keeps you oriented and reduces the chance of getting lost or entering unsafe areas. Skipping safety planning and visiting alone in an unfamiliar area lacks preparation and backup, which raises risk and does not meet professional safety standards.
