Abstract [en]

The effects of hearing loss on adults’ everyday life can be pervasive and far-reaching. Adults with hearing loss may experience difficulties with interpersonal communication, psychosocial well-being, quality of life, and even economic independence. This chapter will focus on adults with acquired permanent hearing loss and will utilise the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework to assist professionals in considering the client holistically during clinical and rehabilitation encounters. Three fictitious cases are presented to illustrate the opportunities and challenges faced by three adults with acquired hearing loss living in varying circumstances. The information presented, along with these cases, provides practical guidance for professionals who are not experts in supporting these individuals and their families in accessing equitable services. The authors aim to inspire the adoption of the proposed tools and communication strategies to bridge the communication gap between professionals and clients in clinical and rehabilitation settings.
