Speaking louder isn’t always the best way to help someone with hearing loss understand you.
Instead of shouting, try:
• Get their attention first
• Face them when you speak
• Move closer
• Reduce background noise
• Rephrase instead of repeating the same sentence
Sometimes, giving the brain **different words and more context** can make the message easier to understand.
Hearing technology can help tremendously, but communication is a two-person job. 💙
