Abstract
For a patient that is deaf, providing patient care can be more difficult due to communication barriers. This study was conducted in order to better understand pharmacists’ current means of communicating with deaf patients as well as investigating pharmacists’ knowledge of their legal responsibility to these patients.
Methods
Surveys were used to gather information from pharmacists and were distributed in areas with a large population of deaf patients.
