Holiday gatherings can be challenging for loved ones with hearing loss. Here are some simple ways to support them: Ask them what helps them feel included. This could be sitting in a quieter corner, using captions on TV, or letting them know when someone new joins the conversation. Sit next to them during gatherings. This allows for easier face-to-face communication and lipreading. Reduce background noise during conversations. Turn off the TV, dim the music, or find a quieter space to chat. Small actions can make a BIG difference in creating a happy and inclusive holiday season!
