Beacan is a nursing assistant for Kala. Before reading her chart, he went into her room to greet her. He opened the door and introduced himself. Kala did not look toward the door or respond to his introduction. Beacan let the door close as he made his way to Kala’s bedside, and the door slammed shut making a loud noise. Kala jumped in her bed, startled by the noise. Beacan immediately knew he would have to adjust his care to Kala’s special needs because she has: glaucoma
retinopathy
presbycusis
tinnitus
