used in the first part of this
assessment, the Analysis of a Case
Study, identify
an urgent risk area. Ensure your
answer details why you have
identified this risk area including
specific information
about the client and support your
risk assessment with evidence from
the current literature.
The urgent risk area of Munny Kaew in
the case study is lack of willingness to

international government agencies as a

several comorbidities like diabetes,
asthma, angina and arthritis. This
