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?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Speech therapist. The speech therapist specializes in evaluating swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) and determining safe feeding strategies for patients with such conditions. They assess the client's ability to swallow, recommend appropriate feeding techniques, and ensure that the client receives adequate nutrition without compromising their safety. Respiratory therapists focus on breathing-related issues, while physical and occupational therapists primarily address mobility and functional abilities.
Therefore, the speech therapist is the most appropriate member of the inter-professional team to consult in this situation.
