PBS: Maine's deaf community unites to heal in wake of Lewiston shooting

RantWoman has not previously heard about the impact the Lewiston ME mass shooting had on the deaf community.

RantWoman nearly threw things at the computer when they said that interpreters were kept out of the ER!!!!

RantWoman shared the post with someone who said, basically, "that wouldn't happen where I work." RantWoman unfortunately can see how a mass casualty event involving multiple deaf people, both injured and trying to navigate a waiting room would be really confusing. RantWoman will be interested to know whether, say, any kind of educational video results from learnings after the event.
