People who rely on facial expressions and lipreading to communicate are finding communication especially difficult during the pandemic. 😷
Some tips from RNID
✅ Face the the person you're talking to and speak clearly – avoid shouting or speaking too fast.
✅ If someone doesn’t understand you, repeat what you said or phrase it differently - use plain language.
✅ If it's noisy, move to a quieter place if possible.
✅ Write things down – use pen on paper or text on device screens.
✅ If they ask you to, speak to a relative or friend.

People who are deaf or have hearing loss have individual communication needs and you should ask someone how best you

Caring for an individual usually means you might assist them with their meals, provide them with personal care, help with medication and more. But it's also important to remember those less-obvious tasks, such as looking out for fire-risks in the service user's home.
Kitchen appliances, electrics, ci******es and candles are the 4 greatest causes of accidental fire in the home. Below are actions that can be implemented to try and reduce these risks as much as possible.
In the Kitchen:
-Make sure saucepan handles don’t stick out.
-Take care if you’re wearing loose clothing.
-Keep tea towels and cloths away from the cooker and hob.
-Double check the cooker is off when you’ve finished cooking.
-Keep electrics away from water.
-Check toasters are clean and placed away from curtains and kitchen rolls.
-Keep the oven, hob and grill clean and in good working order. A build up of fat and grease can ignite a fire.
Electrics:
-Certain appliances, such as washing machines, should have a single plug to themselves, as they are high powered.
-Try and keep to one plug per socket.
-Keep your eyes peeled for signs of dangerous, loose wiring or flickering lights.
-Unplug appliances when you’re not using them.
-Check and replace any old cables, especially if they are hidden from view.
Ci******es & Candles:
-Never smoke in bed.
-Use a proper ashtray – never a wastepaper basket.
-Don’t leave a lit candle, cigarette, cigar or pipe lying around.
-Take extra care if you smoke when you’re tired, taking prescription drugs, or if you’ve been drinking.
