Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The small size of hearing aids may make it difficult for older adults to manipulate, so they may need assistance in the aid's removal.
Rationale 2: Clients are instructed not to remove their aids in common rooms like a sunroom.
Rationale 3: The removal of the aid is necessary before bathing so it is not damaged.
Rationale 4: The aid should always be stored in the client's bedside table-not sent home with the family-so it is available for later use.
