D. Postural drainage should be performed before meals or at least 1-2 hours after meals to prevent vomiting or aspiration.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

  • A. Incorrect. While it's important to maintain social interaction with the client, avoiding excessive conversation during feeding is recommended. Distractions can interfere with the client's ability to focus on swallowing and increase the risk of aspiration.
  • B. Incorrect.Coughing is a natural reflex that helps to clear the airway of any material that may have been aspirated. Discouraging coughing could potentially lead to a more serious problem.
  • C. Correct.Sitting at or below the client's eye level provides a clearer view of the food and helps the client maintain control over their swallowing. This can reduce the risk of aspiration.
  • D. Incorrect.Lifting the chin can actually increase the risk of aspiration by narrowing the opening to the trachea (windpipe). It's generally recommended to avoid lifting the chin during swallowing.
