DEH2806 Miami Dade Chapter 60 Patient with A Sensory Disability Discussion

Introduction
Your patient is a 75 year old gentleman. He is “hard of hearing” but does not admit to any hearing loss. He has refused his wife’s suggestion to be tested for a hearing aid. How will you communicate with the patient today and how will you present oral home care instructions? Do you think it is appropriate for you to discuss the patient’s apparent hearing loss with him?

Remember: All posts and responses should contain proper grammar, be free of spelling errors, be substantial, and reflect critical thinking.
