Therapist Has Been Working with a 70 Year-Old Male Who

Therapist has been working with a 70 year-old male who was recently discharged from the hospital due to a severe urinary tract infection.The patient has been receiving therapy twice a week for 2 weeks however the patient continues to complain about impaired balance without any dizziness.The patient has bilateral hearing aids however refuses to use them because they aggravate the "ringing" in his ears.The therapist reassesses his plan of care to see how he might alter the plan.What guiding principle should be considered for this patient's rehabilitation prognosis?

A) He might need to cut back on the number of times he wants his patient to perform the exercises
B) Bilateral vestibular loss generally requires a longer episode of care therefore he might just need to give his patient more time to respond
C) He might encourage his patient to wear at least one hearing aid during sessions to make sure the patient hears all instructions
D) The patient must not be compliant therefore he might have the patient keep a daily exercise journal
