You should say "Services Interpereted for the Hearing Impaired". My name is Jennifer and I'm studying to become an ASL interpreter. For the record, Deaf people hate the term "Hearing Impaired". It's an insult. The correct way would be "Services interpreted for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing".

Yes. A doctor would be expected to provide interpreting services for a deaf individual.
A person could always help a deaf or blind person who may be struggling in public. Businesses can also be more aware of disabilities and provide more TTY services and large-print services.

Yes, you should capitalize "Deaf" when referring to the Deaf culture and community. "Hard of hearing" is generally not hyphenated when used as a descriptor before a noun, but it can be hyphenated when used as a compound modifier before a noun (e.g., she is hard-of-hearing).
Aristotle believed that deaf people were incapable of rational thought as he associated intelligence and understanding with the ability to speak and hear. He viewed deafness as a barrier to communication and education, which he considered essential for intellectual development. However, modern understanding of deafness and communication challenges has evolved significantly since Aristotle's time.
It should not matter if you marry a deaf/hearing person. Just because you are deaf does not mean you must marry a deaf person just as it doesn't mean a hearing person must marry hearing. Whoever you fall in love with and WANT to marry is who you should marry, regardless of whether the person is hearing or deaf.
