Hearing Loss
Frequently Asked Questions
3. What impact can hearing loss have on an
older person's life?
People with hearing loss have trouble fully participating in
everyday life. They may mistake words in a conversation, miss
directions or warnings, or leave a ringing doorbell unanswered.
Older people who can't hear well may become depressed or withdraw
from others to avoid feeling frustrated or embarrassed about not
understanding what is being said. (Answer continues on next
