FLYER IMAGE (MASK)
We know that oftentimes Face masks can be a challenge to communication as it’s hard to see the lip movements and facial expressions so to solve this issue, a wonderful team of volunteers is working with DHCC to sew together some clear masks to be distributed to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community.
They are made from cloth and plastic and they are not FDA approved or medical grade.
They can be requested online at this link www.tinyurl.com/dhccmasks or you can call into our CRT Hotline and place a request with our volunteers at 484-326-5600, If no answer, leave your name and your address and we’ll get them out to you.
Only two masks per request as we have a limited supply on hand, if you need a larger order, contact Kyle@dhcc.org for other arrangements.
WAIVER: This information is not a substitute for medical healthcare
The information available on this website is not intended as a substitute for the services or information provided by trained medical and other professionals and/or healthcare providers, such as medical doctors, medical specialists, the emergency services, acute and other mental healthcare providers, physiotherapists and psychotherapists (this is not an exhaustive list).
Neither the information available on this website nor the user options can be considered as a substitute for medical or other professional care, support or information, and are not intended as a tool for performing a diagnosis or self-diagnosis.
The information is intended as general information and is not specifically aimed at an individual person or an individual medical condition experienced by, for example, a visitor to this website or a person the visitor is acquainted with. This means that visitors to this website can attach no diagnostic or therapeutic value to this information in respect of their own medical condition or that of others.
Where a person is ill, suffers from medical issues, is being treated or is performing research, this information is only intended to provide support. In such cases, the information available on this website can act as support when it comes to the contact between the visitor (or his or her family member or other relative) and their therapist, treating physician or other healthcare provider and the recommendations that he or she receives from the latter party.
Visitors are advised to ask any medical questions, issues or symptoms to their treating physician or other healthcare professional in good time in order to receive a professional examination, diagnosis and, where appropriate, medical care. We advise visitors to this website to never delay seeking professional care or to disregard medical advice that has been received on the basis of (online) information.
In the event of acute medical issues or psychological problems and where the issues or symptoms become exacerbated, we recommend that visitors to this website immediately contact their own doctor or the emergency services.
‘Self-care information’ is not personal advice
In a number of cases the information contains ‘self-care recommendations’. Under no circumstances are these recommendations direct medical advice and they never pertain specifically to the individual medical condition of the visitor or to a person on behalf of whom the visitor is seeking information on this website.
Self-care advice must be considered as general guidelines that apply to non-serious, common and everyday issues. But because complications can also occur when it comes to these less-serious issues, it is important that in the event of any doubts and in the event of lasting or more serious issues, the visitor seeks professional medical care.
With regard to the information concerning the use of (self-care) preparations, this information once again under no circumstances constitutes medical advice or information pertaining specifically to the individual medical condition of the visitor or to a person on behalf of whom the visitor is seeking information on this website.
Medical questions
Because DHCC shall under no circumstances directly (such as telephonically or by email) or indirectly provide medical advice that is intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, emails from visitors to this website that concern questions or requests pertaining to medical and/or psychological issues, for example, the choice of treatment or the results of a specific medical or other treatment shall not be answered.
Liability
The use or application of the information available on DHCC by visitors to this website or recipients of masks created by volunteers is wholly under the liability and at the risk of the user.
DHCC and its staff and volunteers exclude all liability for any direct or indirect damage, irrespective of the nature thereof, resulting from or related to the use or the application of the information, products or services offered through this mask distribution program, other websites or services referred to within or by dhcc.org.http://www.tinyurl.com/dhccmasks
