a) Post operative nutrition
b) Alternative methods of communication

d) Visiting hours

Answer 1

The answer is b) Alternative methods of communication

Step-by-step explanation:

Patience who have had a laryngectomy are very frustrated by their loss of normal speech abilities.

Hope this answer helps.
