HEARING IMPAIRMENT DEFINITION: 

  • Persons with hearing impairments include people who are either hard of hearing or deaf. 

  • Hard of hearing refers to a hearing loss, from mild to severe.

  • Deaf refers to a profound hearing loss. Persons are considered “deaf” if their hearing loss is such that they are unable to understand speech and must rely on vision for communication.
