Texting: Making communication easy for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing


Texting: Making communication easy for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

SMS (short message system) makes the basic need of communication for the deaf and HOH extremely convenient. The primary benefit of texting through cell phones is that the phone is lightweight, affordable and convenient enough to carry around in a pocket while out and about.

Phone carriers offer many different plans in order to accommodate the customer’s specific needs. Selections of the right amount of voice minutes and texting are available when choosing the right plan for you; which is why cell phones make the perfect compact communication device especially to the deaf and HOH. Certain carriers provide the option to have a plan with no minutes and unlimited texting so you aren’t paying for minutes that aren’t being used.

More advanced phone models like the iPhone, Blackberry and Sidekick offer a full keypad to make frequent texting more convenient than ever to the customer.
