Explanation:
1. 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.
2. Picture boards, while useful, should not be the primary means of communication for a child who reads lips.
3. Speaking in a loud voice might not promote hearing in the child.
4. Speaking only to the parents does not help the child with the hospitalization.
