“…Health services must be planned considering the deaf patient; however, the complaints of these patients are similar to those from normal patients [14]. The improvement in the communication with the deaf clientele entails substantial improvements in terms of functional autonomy for these patients-which is the objective of physical rehabilitation programs.…”

Deaf people face communication difficulties in health units because of the lack of preparedness of health care professionals to deal with these patients. Objective: To identify how physical rehabilitation professionals associated with a regional public unit in the south central region of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil interact with deaf patients. Method: Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics in the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 18. Results: Results showed that: 15.1% (5) of the team members did not know the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) and required help in their interaction with deaf patients; 12.1% (4) never assisted deaf patients; 18.2% (6) used writing and gestures; 21.2% (7) resorted to lipreading or gestures; 3.1% (1) spoke slowly; 6.1% (2) used mime; 15.1% (5) used the Brazilian Sign Language; 9.1% (3) did not respond. Conclusion: Most of these professionals are not prepared to satisfactorily interact with deaf patients. They use improvised strategies to assist the deaf clientele, demonstrating that the planning and implementation of regular courses in sign language are fundamental in order to assist these patients effectively.

“…A pessoa surda pertence a uma comunidade minoritária, que partilha uma língua de sinais, valores culturais, hábitos e modos de socialização próprios (CHAVEIRO et al 2014). As pessoas que desenvolvem perda auditiva podem aprender a se comunicar através do desenvolvimento de habilidades de leitura labial, uso de texto escrito ou impresso e língua de sinais.…”

“…Um estudo de revisão integrativa apontou que sintomas de ansiedade e depressão são mais fortes nos surdos e podem ter relação direta com as dificuldades de comunicação, por estes indivíduos evitarem novas relações sociais, aumentando o isolamento social e reduzindo a QVRS. Os autores concluíram que a surdez impacta negativamente na QVRS de pessoas surdas (CHAVEIRO et al, 2014).…”

A perda auditiva ou surdez é uma realidade que afeta milhões de pessoas de todas as idades, dificultando a capacidade de desenvolver habilidades essenciais para vivência em sociedade, interferindo no bem estar e na qualidade de vida, principalmente quando não há Políticas Públicas adequadas que atendam esses indivíduos. O objetivo do trabalho é caracterizar a surdez e descrever o seu impacto na qualidade de vida do indivíduo. Foi realizada uma revisão narrativa da literatura com pesquisa em livros, artigos acadêmicos e periódicos em português e na língua inglesa, publicados nos últimos 10 anos. A falta de compreensão em LIBRAS pelas pessoas que convivem com o surdo, falta de independência no ambiente de trabalho por problemas de comunicação e a falta de Políticas Públicas de inclusão podem ser fatores que agravam e afetam negativamente a qualidade de vida do surdo.

Purpose: to learn the deaf people’s perspective on the improvements needed in this population’s health care. Methods: an observational, cross-sectional study conducted with 124 deaf people who answered a semi-structured questionnaire to characterize the sample (age, sex, and means of communication) and collect answers to the open question: “Do you have any suggestion to improve the health care for the deaf?” - which was answered either in writing or in the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras). A descriptive analysis was conducted to characterize the sample, as well as a quantitative and qualitative content analysis (thematic-categorical), to identify categories and occurrence frequency of the content in the answers to the open question. Results: the sample’s mean age was 44 years (standard deviation 15, minimum 18, and maximum 70 years), 65% were women, and 78% used Libras to communicate. Most of the participants (83%) answered the open question in writing. Six theme categories were identified: 1) Needed improvements; 2) Communication barriers); 3) Health promotion; 4) Autonomy; 5) Achievements; and 6) Law. Conclusion: the results reveal a need for improvements in the health care of deaf people. The perspective of the studied deaf population is based on their desire to gain autonomy, overcome communication barriers, and have access to information, aiming at health promotion.
