3.2 Dementia & Hearing Loss: The Audiologist’s Role

This is the first episode in a new mini-series, dedicated to exploring Dementia and its links with hearing loss and brain health. We’ve made this series to coincide with Alzheimer’s Awareness month, as we know that many people living with Dementia may also be suffering from hearing problems, as they share very similar characteristics. It is estimated that by 2030, the number of people with Dementia in the UK alone will be more than 1 million, so it’s vital that we (as Audiologists) understand the issues and how support can be offered. 

Throughout this series, Julia is joined by the internationally acclaimed Dr. Barbara Weinstein. She is an Author in the field of ‘geriatric audiology’ with specific research interests in Dementia and social isolation, person-centered care and quantification of patient reported outcomes. Dr. Weinstein has long advocated for the integration of hearing health into the mainstream, and her research has profound implications at the intersection of audiology, public health and society in general. 

Throughout the series, we’ll discuss the Audiologist's responsibility in the prevention and treatment of Dementia, asking what we can do at present when looking after a Dementia patient, as well as doing a deeper dive into the Audiologist's rehabilitative role thereafter. 

In this episode we will be introducing Dementia and looking at how it links to hearing loss & audiology.
