For Your Family and Friends

Your family and friends are also affected by your

hearing loss� Request that they:

• Get your full attention before beginning to speak

• Look at you or sit face-to-face in a quiet room

• Speak clearly and at a normal rate and level;

shouting can actually make understanding

more difﬁcult

• Rephrase rather than repeat the same words;

different words may be easier to understand

• Minimize distractions while speaking
