Home › CNA Practice Tests › Role of the Nurse Aide Questions › Question 94
A resident with low vision wants to choose lunch from a printed menu. How can the aide help best?
- A.Hand over the menu silently and wait by the door
- B.Read the menu very quickly in a noisy dining room
- C.Read each item aloud slowly in a quiet, well-lit area
- D.Choose the lunch for the resident without asking first
Correct answer
C. Read each item aloud slowly in a quiet, well-lit area
Why
Reading items aloud slowly in a quiet, well-lit setting lets the resident hear options and make an independent choice. Handing over print the resident cannot read, rushing, or choosing for the resident removes independence.
