Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is suffering from dysphagia after a stroke and is currently NPO. Which member of the inter-professional team would the nurse anticipate will be consulted to determine how this client will be safely fed?

A. Speech therapist B. Respiratory therapist C. Physical therapist D. Occupational therapist

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Speech therapist. A speech therapist specializes in evaluating and treating swallowing disorders such as dysphagia. They will assess the client's swallowing ability and recommend appropriate feeding methods to ensure safe nutrition intake. Respiratory therapists focus on lung and breathing issues, not swallowing. Physical and occupational therapists address mobility and daily living activities, not feeding.
Therefore, the speech therapist is the most appropriate team member to consult in this scenario.
