If your client can form words with his/her mouth, you may be able to distinguish them by lip reading. To enhance your ability to lip read, try to have your client's face in the light and sit fairly close to him/her. Ask your client to indicate how "yes" and "no" are communicated (by a nod, a blink, a shake of the head, a lifted finger, or the like). When you have lip-read something your client has said, repeat the sentence out loud and ask your client to indicate whether this is correct. When you repeat the sentence, use a neutral tone unless your client's affect and body language have communicated specific feelings. Using a neutral tone decreases any "noise" or distortion you might give and encourages the client to continue to elaborate if desired for clarity and specificity. Avoid using a monotone in repeating your client's sentence, however, for this might sound artificial and communicate a lack of interest.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
