A nurse is communicating with an unresponsive patient. The nurse continues to explain all procedures and talks to the patient, even though there is no apparent response. This demonstrates the principle that:

  • Unresponsive patients cannot hear or understand.
  • Communication is only verbal.
  • Unresponsive patients may still hear and benefit from therapeutic communication and respectful interaction.
  • Communication is futile with unresponsive patients.
