Answer:

Option A, this worker will make a referral to the psychiatrist for an appointment within the next month

Explanation:

As its name may suggest, the letter P in the SOAP note mnemonic stands for plan which encompasses and communicates to both the patient and healthcare worker colleagues what the next course of action in the treatment of a patient entails based on what information was collected from the patient's subjective data, objective data, and health assessment -- these are the previous letters and steps in the SOAP note.

Option A in which the worker states they will make a referral to a psychiatrist encapsulates just that, as opposed to option B which is assessment data or option C which is subjective data.

Thus, option A, "This worker will make a referral to the psychiatrist for an appointment within the next month" best describes a plan.
