Plain-language summary

The goal of this research is to create a training film for hearing healthcare providers to teach them how to competently and sensitively interact with Deaf patients. In Year 1, focus groups will be facilitated to elicit feedback that will inform video production of the training film. In Year 2, film production will take place, as well as a randomized clinical trial (RCT) to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the new training intervention.
