5 Top tips for communication DO 12 things to remember when communicating with people who are deaf or hard of hearing DON T Always make sure you have the person s attention before speaking Face the person while you are speaking, do not turn away Always stand with your face to the light and make eye contact where possible Start by making the topic of the conversation as clear as possible Try to speak clearly and naturally and use facial expressions Remember: take your time and be patient. Repeat or rephrase what you have said if you need to as some words might be tricky to understand. If you re stuck, try writing it down! Never make assumptions about communication preferences. Some people use sign language, some use lipreading most people use a combination of approaches Make sure there isn t lots of noise in the background (like a TV) or try to talk to someone from across the room Don t cover or put anything in your mouth while talking. Eating or biting your nails while talking to someone is a definite no-no Avoid standing with your back to a window this can turn your face into shadow and make it harder to lipread Try not to speak too slowly, mumble or shout this will distort your lip patterns Don t give up, get frustrated or say Forget it!
