Synopsis

At the worldwide level, a blanket of silence covers linguistic access to care for the deaf. The tragedy of the deaf is not being heard. Intolerable situations arise : major errors in treatment due to poor communication; sometimes complete misunderstanding. The use of sign language establish a level of care equivalent to that of the country's population. International recognition of the choice of language in which one wishes combine two basic rights: the right to one's language and the right to care. This would be a social advance that would extend to all those who were in need of care, tired or anxious, would not have to overcome the additional obstacle of a doctor who does not speak their language.PLANHow many people in the world are concerned by the possible choice of sign language ? . What do scientific journals teach us ? Nothing for the deaf without the action of the deaf. Professional sign language already in place - interpretation - sign language care facilities Origins of care units: 1- a response to epidemics 2- favorable political context When choice is possible .
