Practice Question

A nurse is observing a student perform care for a client with hearing aids in both ears. Which student action should be corrected by the nurse?

Answer Choices:

A. Exaggerating mouth movements when speaking to the client ✓ Correct Answer

B. Standing directly in front of the client when speaking with the client

C. Keeping hands away from the face while speaking with the client

D. Making sure that the room light is on before administering care

Correct Answer:

Exaggerating mouth movements when speaking to the client

Rationale:

🗣️Exaggerated mouth movements distort natural lip patterns, making it harder for clients to read lips accurately.

👁️Clients rely on a combination of auditory input and visual cues, and natural facial expressions support comprehension.

🚫Overemphasis of mouth shapes can confuse speech-reading and reduce effective communication.

💡Maintaining natural mouth movements preserves the clarity of lip-reading for hearing-impaired clients.

📌Core Message

Natural mouth movements aid lip reading for clients with hearing impairment.
