When communicating with individuals with hearing loss, you
have to consider the following:
1.
Attention of the person you are talking to. When
his attention is 100%, it is easier to communicate with the aid of body
language and facial expressions.
2.
The distance between you and the other person. It
will be clearer to see the person’s facial expressions when the distance is
near.
3.
Speaking speed. It is essential to adjust the
speaking speed in order to catch every word uttered.
4.
Lipreading is helpful because it can enhance the
emphasis of words.
