Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching the partner of a client who had a stroke about dysphagia. Which of the following statements by the client's partner should indicate to the nurse that the teaching was effective?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: "My partner should tilt their head forward when swallowing." This is the correct statement because tilting the head forward helps prevent aspiration during swallowing, reducing the risk of choking and aspiration pneumonia. Tilted head positions the airway above the level of the food bolus, aiding in safe swallowing.


Choice A is incorrect because placing food on the weaker side does not directly address dysphagia concerns.
Choice C is incorrect as coughing while swallowing is a sign of dysfunctional swallowing and should be avoided.
Choice D is incorrect as sitting at a 30° angle does not specifically address dysphagia management.
