These are very great tips for anyone who works with or communicates with an individual who may have impaired hearing. I enjoyed reading these tips and they will be helpful to know, not only as a health care professional, but also as an individual exposed to the deaf community.

Disability is part of the natural diversity of human life. It touches all of us, whether through our own individual experience or that of a family member, neighbor, friend or colleague. As such, we all have a role in—and benefit to gain from—advancing equality for people with disabilities in all sectors of society, including the workplace.
