NCLEX RN Practice Question

The correct action is to use short, simple sentences. This technique minimizes confusion and enhances the client's ability to understand. Speaking loudly can be agitating and is not helpful unless a hearing impairment is present. Asking open-ended questions can be overwhelming and frustrating for a client with advanced dementia, who may struggle with memory and forming complex thoughts; closed-ended questions are preferred. Using complex medical terminology would further impair communication and is inappropriate.
