Guidance on hearing loss published

Several government departments and other stakeholders have joined together to publish new three new guides on what works for people with hearing loss.

The guides examine how society can help people with hearing loss and communication needs.

The three guides can be found below:

• What works: hearing loss and employment
• What works: hearing loss and the transition to adulthood
• What works: hearing loss and healthy ageing

The guidance on healthy ageing will be formally launched at the Ear Foundation’s Hearing for Healthy Ageing Conference today.

Sue Hill, NHS Chief Scientific Officer, has also written about the guides here.
