DeafDigest - 03 December 2018

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - December 3, 2018 -- automaker says deaf can hear the sound warning Honda, the automobile manufacturer, said that its' newest CR-V has a sound warning system that would alert deaf drivers of problems while driving. Does Honda think deaf people can hear? Not every deaf person wears a hearing aid or has a CI.   -- worst hospital interpreting issue Not in USA, but overseas - a hospital, lacking an interpreter, asked the Coda child to tell his father that his illness cannot be cured and that it would be fatal. This is the worst interpreting issue that DeafDigest has heard of.   -- a new word DeafDigest never heard of A recent newspaper story was about a lipspeaker. DeafDigest never heard of that word. It is a person who is lipreadable.       Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 12/02/18 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
