Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has aphasia following a stroke. A family member asks the nurse how she should communicate with the client. Which of the following responses by the nurse is appropriate?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Incorporate nonverbal cues in the conversation. This is appropriate because individuals with aphasia may have difficulty understanding and producing speech but can often interpret nonverbal communication effectively. Nonverbal cues such as gestures, facial expressions, and body language can help enhance communication and convey meaning. Using simple childlike statements (
A) may come across as patronizing and disrespectful. Using a higher-pitched tone of voice (
B) may not necessarily aid in communication for someone with aphasia. Asking multiple choice questions (
D) may not be effective as it may still rely heavily on verbal language.
