Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Evidence that the care provided to a client with a hearing deficit has been effective would be the client asking others to face the client when talking, as the client can hear the speaker better. The other responses would indicate that care has not been effective. Hearing aid batteries should be changed every week. Hearing aids should be worn at all times. Raising the television volume is not the ideal way to manage a hearing deficit.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

An intervention to address Disturbed Sensory Perception: Auditory would be to replace the batteries in hearing aids every week. The other interventions are appropriate for the diagnosis of Impaired Verbal Communication.
