The nurse can assist a child who has a mild hearing loss and reads lips to adapt to hospitalization by
1. Speaking directly to the parents for communication.
2. Speaking in a loud voice while facing the child.
3. Using a picture board as the main means of communication.
4. Touching the child lightly before speaking.

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.
