Which two prioritization frameworks are identified in the material?

• A. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
• B. ABC framework
• C. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the ABC framework
• D. Both Maslow and ABC

Answer: (C)

The material identifies two prioritization frameworks: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the ABC framework. Maslow's model lines up human needs from physiological basics up to self-actualization, so in care planning you ensure fundamental needs like air, food, warmth, and safety are addressed before moving to higher-level goals such as belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. The ABC framework sorts tasks by urgency and impact: A tasks are high-priority and must be done soon because delaying them has serious consequences; B tasks are important but not urgent; C tasks are lower priority. Using both together gives a practical approach: Maslow guides what needs must be met for the person to function, while ABC helps decide which actions to take first during care delivery based on urgency and importance. The material specifically identifies both frameworks as the tools discussed for prioritization, making them the two frameworks in question.
