Answer:

They can put it in simpler terms also know as layman terms. You never know what a patient is going to understand and you should never assume that they are all super geniuses, you have to explain it to them in a way that they will understand. many factors go into this like do they have autism? Do they have any problems affecting the way they think? you talk to them based off of how they understand, but NEVER EVER talk to them like they are stupid.
