Working with Deaf People - A Handbook for Healthcare Professionals

Edited by Anna Middleton

Why is it that you turn up for an audiology appointment and they try and shout your name across the waiting room masses? What is that makes radiologists think you can hear them through the X-Ray booth screen?

This timely work gives timely advice to medical professionals on how to prepare for a consultation with clients and patients who are deaf or deafblind. Information is offered about language, communication and culture; case studies demonstrate how the messages can be applied in practice. Every health professional, medical and nursing student, whatever their discipline and whatever country they work in, should have a copy of this book.
