Show Worked Solution

A is correct as the scenario describes community members actively participating in decisions that affect their health services.

Other options:

B is incorrect as while improved access may be an outcome, the scenario focuses on the process of involving community members in decision-making.
C is incorrect as equity focuses on fair distribution of resources rather than involvement in decision-making.
D is incorrect as rights refers to protecting entitlements rather than active involvement in decisions.
