Overcoming sensory barriers for the inclusion of deaf people
Italian Sign Language is a crucial means of communication for communities of deaf individuals, facilitating communication between themselves and with those who can hear. At Villa Canova, a retirement home for the deaf in Florence, this language gains even greater significance in fostering communication between deaf residents and their caregivers. The staff's proficiency in Italian Sign Language enables them to deliver tailored assistance, fostering an environment of inclusion and understanding for all residents at the facility.
