How are the terms deaf, deafened, hard of hearing, and hearing impaired typically used?... - 0 views

  • The term "hearing impaired" is often used to describe people with any degree of hearing loss, from mild to profound, including those who are deaf and those who are hard of hearing. Many individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing prefer the terms "deaf" and "hard of hearing," because they consider them to be more positive than the term "hearing impaired," which implies a deficit or that something is wrong that makes a person less than whole.

      Hard of hearing vs hearing impaired explanation
  • Deaf, deafened, and hard of hearing individuals may choose to use hearing aids, cochlear implants, and/or other assistive listening devices to boost available hearing. Alternatively, or in addition, they may read lips, use sign language, sign language interpreters, and/or captioning.
  • People who are deaf or hard of hearing may have speech that is difficult to understand due to the inability to hear their own voice.
