Who We Are
We are a group of Sheffield based medical students who are working towards a level 1 qualification level in BSL (British Sign Language). Through this, we have been able to explore the issues and problems affecting deaf people when they come into contact with the medical world. It can be quite challenging to give and receive all the right information needed, and when it is as something as important as health involved it becomes a problem. This website hopes to bring it more into the view of medical students so when they go into practice they will hopefully be better prepared for meeting and communicating with deaf people.
