4... The nurse can facilitate hospital adaptation of a child who has a hearing loss and can lip-read by obtaining the child’s visual attention by lightly touching the child before communicating. Speaking to the parents only does not help the child with the hospitalization. Speaking in a loud voice may not promote hearing in the child, and a picture board, while useful, should not be the primary means of communication for a child who reads lips.
