Belfast, Northern Ireland (Belfast Telegraph): Access to health services for the deaf or hard of hearing people remains a postcode lottery in Northern Ireland, a new study has revealed.
RNID's report A Simple Cure revealed, due to communication problems with health professionals, that a third of deaf and hard of hearing people had been left unclear about their condition, and 33% of sign language users were unsure of how much medication to take, which could have serious consequences.
