This device was made to help ensure that medical professionals can communicate clearly with their patients who are deaf or
have hearing loss. The device could also be used for an HOH medical professional so that they themselves are able to clearly understand their patients. Displaying this device for a disability as art would make the patient feel more relaxed and happy about having to use it. There is a high demand for medical interpreters and they are difficult to obtain for all patients. Hear Clear Gear could help solve that problem. The sleeves are connected as one piece and easily removable to be washed in the hospital/doctor’s office setting to meet cleanliness and sanitation standards. ~Ashton Bedlack
