b.Shout loudly into the patient's ear
c.Cover your mouth while speaking

Giải thích
For a patient who is hard of hearing, the technician should face the patient so they can see the lips, speak clearly at a moderate pace, and minimize background noise. Shouting distorts speech and covering the mouth prevents lip reading. Ensuring hearing aids are in place and using written communication as needed also help.
