A procedure that promotes swallowing without modifying the physiological status of
the patient is known as compensatory treatment. This type of treatment requires little
or no patient effort and does not cause the patient fatigue. Modification of a patient's

a. Recommended for patients with neurogenic dysphagia
b. Teaches the client to tuck the chin to the chest during swallowing
c. Helps direct food to the more efficient side of the pharynx
d. Helps drain food from the oral cavity because of gravity
