AnnotationReduced hearing has a drastic effect on the way someone communicates with others - which can make it difficult for a resident living in a residential home to participate in the life of the home. This pamphlet outlines what staff can do to help: assessment of hearing problems; staff training; hearing aids and other equipment; examination and testing; sight tests; and what to do about background noise.
