Abstract

Language is a system or symbol that children use to interact with the surrounding environment to convey their thoughts or emotions. Language or speech delays refer to cases where the process of developing the ability to understand and speak is correct but slower than what is accepted, while language or speech disorders refer to cases where speech or language abilities deviate from what is expected as development which is normal. Language disorders with expressive vocabulary can be calculated as less than 50 words and/or the absence of word combinations. It is estimated that 15% of children aged 24-29 months experience speech delays. A child is said to be late in speaking if at that age his ability to produce sounds and communicate is below the average for children his age. In essence, speaking is an aspect of a child's development that starts from birth. The evaluation results obtained after carrying out the warm speech technique were that communication problems were resolved in H and seen in H increasing vocabulary. This Senior Practicum activity carries out studies by conducting interviews and observations. The results of the study obtained documentation regarding nursing care that was not optimal in the field of providing health education carried out in Asam Kumbang District, North Sumatra. So based on the problem there is a need to improve nursing care by implementing evidence-based nursing evidence, implementing comprehensive nursing care with appropriate nursing care standards and implementing nursing documentation.
