Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Speaking loudly and into the client’s good ear is not recommended. Loud speech can be distorted and uncomfortable for individuals with presbycusis.
Choice B rationale
Using sign language is not necessary unless the client is proficient in it. Most clients with presbycusis benefit more from clear verbal communication.
Choice C rationale
Sitting by the client’s side and speaking very slowly is not as effective as speaking directly to the client in a normal, clear voice.
Choice D rationale
Speaking directly to the client in a normal, clear voice is recommended. This ensures that the client can read lips and understand the conversation better.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Informing the client that she will need to bring the tick for testing is not necessary. While having the tick can help identify the species and potential risk, it is not required for testing for Lyme disease. The diagnosis can be made based on clinical symptoms and blood tests.
Choice B rationale
Informing the client that the tick is needed to perform a test is incorrect. The presence of the tick is not required for testing for Lyme disease. Blood tests can detect antibodies to the bacteria that cause Lyme disease, even if the tick is not available.
Choice C rationale
Referring the client for a blood test immediately is the appropriate action. Early testing can help diagnose Lyme disease and initiate treatment promptly. Blood tests can detect antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacteria that cause Lyme disease, and help confirm the diagnosis.
Choice D rationale
Asking the client about the size and color of the tick is not the most appropriate action. While this information can provide some context, it does not directly contribute to the diagnosis of Lyme disease. The priority is to refer the client for a blood test to confirm the presence of the infection.
