This is what the audiologist told me. Always speak the name of the person that you are talking to. Apparently in addition to lip reading, this fascilitates the ability to shift attention from whatever they are doing to you speaking. Once you have a moderate to severe hearing loss, a person now has to concentrate on hearing.
The word recognition thing goes along with the hearing loss, but it is not exactly the same thing. There isn't a lot they can do to correct.
it. I have found that I have to enunciate certain words to be understood when talking to someone with a hearing loss.
