Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
If the child with an SLD has a problem listening and understanding, the nurse should use positive reinforcement and significant amounts of patience. When caring for a child with an SLD, the nurse should learn about the specific disability and set achievable goals. The nurse should also create a soothing, nonstimulating environment to aid the child to meet expectations. The nurse needs to adjust healthcare teaching for the child.
