Socializing can be challenging for individuals with hearing loss, but a few considerate adjustments can make a significant difference. Always make sure to get their attention before you start speaking. Talk at a natural pace—avoid shouting—and use pauses to help them follow along. Keep your hands away from your face so they can see your lips clearly. Focus on one topic at a time and inform them if the subject changes. Choose seating arrangements that allow them to see everyone’s faces clearly. Most importantly, check in with them frequently. If they seem confused, restate your message using simpler, shorter sentences to help keep them engaged and included.
