Question 5 of 5
The nurse is planning care for an older adult client who experienced a cerebrovascular accident several weeks ago. The client has expressive aphasia and often becomes frustrated with the nursing staff. Which intervention should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: For a client with expressive aphasia post-CVA, encouraging the use of picture charts is the most effective intervention. Expressive aphasia impairs the ability to speak or write, but comprehension may remain intact. Picture charts allow the client to communicate needs visually, reducing frustration and enhancing interaction with staff. Sign language requires learning and motor skills that may be compromised, slow speech aids comprehension but not expression, and simple questions don't address the communication barrier as directly as pictures do.
