Tips for People with Hearing Loss When communicating with People Who Are Hearing. 
Rule 
  • Communication is a two-way street. 
  • People with hearing loss must make as much effort as hearing people. 
Set Your Stage 
  • Tell others how best to talk to you. 
  • Pick your best spot (light, quiet, proximity). 
  • Anticipate difficult situations; plan how to minimize them. 
Project your communication 
  • Pay attention. 
  • Concentrate on speaker. 
  • Look for visual clues. 
  • Ask for written clues if needed. 
  • Don't interrupt speaker. 
  • Let conservation flow a little to gain more meaning. 
Establish Empathy with Audience 
  • React. 
  • Let speakers know how well they are doing. 
  • Don't bluff. 
  • Admit it when you don't understand. 
  • If unable to concentrate , ask to discuss later.
