A nurse at a long-term care facility is assessing a client who just received hearing aids. Which of the following actions should indicate to the nurse that the client understands how to use the hearing aids? (Select all that apply.)

A. Cleanses the ear molds with isopropyl alcohol to remove cerumen: Alcohol is not recommended for cleaning hearing aids, as it can damage the device. A mild soap and water solution or a designated cleaning tool is preferable.B. Turns off the hearing aids when not in use: Turning off hearing aids conserves battery life, which is a proper maintenance practice.C. Inspects the ear molds to determine the ear canal portion: Properly positioning the hearing aids ensures correct use and comfort.D. Turns the volume all the way down before inserting the hearing aids: This prevents a sudden loud noise that could startle the client and allows them to adjust to a comfortable volume after insertion.E. Ensures that the ears are not blocked with cerumen: Blocked cerumen can interfere with hearing aid functionality, so this is an essential step.
