Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Tertiary prevention is correct as it involves managing and improving the quality of life for individuals who already have a chronic disease or disability. Rehabilitation and strength training aim to help the client live better despite the existing condition.
B. Primary prevention aims to prevent the onset of disease, which is not the focus here.
C. Workplace prevention is not a specific level of prevention; it may include aspects of primary and secondary prevention.
D. Secondary prevention involves early detection and intervention to prevent the progression of a disease, but since the client already has the condition, tertiary prevention is more applicable.
