A client with hearing impairment attends a health education session. Which action best promotes effective communication?

Correct answer: A. Face the client and use clear visual material

  • A. Face the client and use clear visual material
  • B. Speak loudly while standing behind the client
  • C. Ask a relative to answer every question
  • D. Give the client only a lengthy written leaflet

Explanation

Facing the client supports lip reading and visual cues, while clear visual material reinforces the message. Shouting from behind is ineffective, and relying entirely on a relative or lengthy text may limit participation.
