Mrs. Anju is a patient at a local hospital and has recently suffered a severe stroke that left her unable to talk or write. It is clear to the attending nurse that Mrs. Anju needs something, however, Mrs. Anju is unable to communicate what exactly she needs. Which of the following can the nurse use to help Mrs. Anju relay what she needs? A. Facial expressions such as smiling or frowning. B. Nonverbal communication such as hand gestures. C. Eye contact to show that something is wrong. D. Verbal communication such as words or phrases.

B. Nonverbal communication such as hand gestures.

Explanation:

The best way the nurse and Mrs. Anju could communicate is by using hand gestures and other means of nonverbal communication, such as facial expressions and eye contact. Facial expressions and eye contact alone, however, would not be enough for them to understand each other. That's why option B is better than options A and C. Mrs. Anju could point to what she needs, nod or shake her head, or even use her hands to describe what she needs. Option D is definitely incorrect, because Mrs. Anju has lost the ability to communicate verbally because of the stroke. That leaves us with option B as the correct choice.
