Which is the reason for a healthcare provider to recommend that a preschool-age male client with a documented hearing loss should attend preschool at least 2 days per week?
1. Help the child recognize his hearing deficit.
2. Increase the child's socialization skills.
3. Improve the child's immunity by increased exposure to organisms.
4. Teach other children that children are different.
2
Explanation:
1. This would not be a goal of treatment. The child is aware of what he hears but may not be aware of what he is not hearing.
2. By increasing the interaction with other children, the hearing-impaired child will improve his socialization skills.
3. Increased exposure to organisms will occur, but this is not the goal of the recommendation.
4. The healthcare provider's concern is the well-being of this child, not the other children.
