Grant Activity:
Understanding Hearing Loss to address the health needs of Older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People- A life course approach
Purpose:
Preliminary work suggests Indigenous Older people have higher levels of hearing loss compared with the general Australian population. We will investigate whether there is an association between untreated hearing loss from childhood into older adulthood, barriers to accessing rehabilitation services, and the impact on mental health, social isolation, quality of life, loneliness and cognitive functions in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
