En esta tesis se analiza cómo se construye y conceptualiza la identidad Sorda y la Comunidad Sorda, focalizando además en el acceso que tiene a los servicios de salud como colectivo específico. El colectivo de personas sordas signistas puede ser conceptualizado desde dos perspectivas distintas. Por un lado, la perspectiva biomédica que entenderá la sordera como un déficit, una patología; y por otro, la sociocultural que la entenderá como una particularidad haciendo que se perciba e interprete el mundo a partir del rasgo visual. Es a partir de esta segunda perspectiva desde donde se conceptualiza la Identidad y Comunidad Sorda, siendo la lengua de signos su rasgo identitario primordial. Pero además, la invisibilidad social en la que vive inmersa la Comunidad Sorda se ve también reflejada en la atención que los servicios de salud les prestan como colectivo específico. El sistema de salud, de forma análoga a la sociedad en general, aunque a otra escala, no ha sido concebido ni organizado, o no suficientemente, para dar respuesta a las particularidades de la población estudiada. Este hecho crea toda una serie de inconvenientes, tanto a las personas sordas oralistas como a las signistas, en su interacción con el sistema y los servicios de salud. En la tesis se analizan las dificultades principales en esa interacción, las consecuencias que se derivan para la salud y se proponen alternativas para la mejora de la intervención sociosanitaria y el respeto de los derechos de estos ciudadanos.
This thesis analyses the way that both the Deaf Identity and the Deaf Community are constructed and conceptualized, focusing on their access to health services as a specific group. The group of deaf signers can be conceptualized from two different perspectives. On the one hand, from a biomedical perspective, which will understand deafness as a deficiency, as a disease. On the other hand, it can be conceptualized from a sociocultural perspective, which will take it as a distinctive feature, perceiving and interpreting the world using the sense of sight. It is from this second perspective from which the Deaf Identity and Community is conceptualized, being sign language its main identifying feature. In addition, the social invisibility in which the Deaf Community is immersed is further reflected in the attention being paid to them as a specific group by the health services. The health system, similarly to society in general, although at another level, has not been conceived nor organised –or at least not enough– to respond to the specific characteristics of the study population. This leads to a series of drawbacks for both deaf oralists and signers in their interaction with the health system and services. This thesis analyses the main constraints in this interaction as well as the consequences for health, and proposes alternatives for the improvement of socio-health care and for the respect of the rights of these citizens.
