Cochlear implants (CIs) and hearing aids are essential assistive devices for individuals with hearing loss; however, they present challenges concerning language access. This presentation examines the relationship between CIs, hearing aids, and language acquisition while emphasizing the significance of American Sign Language (ASL). It also investigates disparities in access to CIs and rehabilitation services and incorporates perspectives from the Deaf community regarding cultural identity and communication rights. Ethical considerations related to the decision-making process for pediatric CI recipients are also explored. The primary goal is to promote strategies that enhance language accessibility for individuals with hearing loss.
