    Summary

    Effective nurse-patient communication is crucial. Many nurses lack training to communicate with Deaf patients, leading to inappropriate care and unmet communication needs, impacting the quality of nursing services.

    Area of Science:

    • Nursing
    • Healthcare Communication
    • Patient Experience

    Background:

    • Effective nurse-patient communication is essential for safe and high-quality healthcare.
    • A significant gap exists in training healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, on communicating with Deaf individuals.
    • This deficit often results in communication barriers and suboptimal care for Deaf patients.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the existing literature on the communication experiences of Deaf patients with nurses.
    • To understand how Deaf patients perceive the care they receive from nurses.
    • To identify challenges and best practices in nurse-Deaf patient communication.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of studies focusing on nurse-Deaf patient interactions.

  • Analysis of qualitative and quantitative data on patient communication experiences.
  • Synthesis of research on communication needs and strategies in nursing care for the Deaf population.

    • Main Results:

    • Deaf patients often face significant communication challenges with nurses due to a lack of appropriate training and resources.
    • Inappropriate communication attempts can lead to misunderstandings, reduced patient satisfaction, and compromised care.
    • The literature highlights a need for improved understanding of Deaf patients' communication preferences and requirements.

    Conclusions:

    • Healthcare systems must prioritize training nurses in effective communication strategies for Deaf patients.
    • Addressing communication needs is vital for ensuring equitable, safe, and patient-centered nursing care.
    • Further research is needed to develop and implement evidence-based communication protocols for Deaf individuals in healthcare settings.
