CI Futures Forum: The Relationship Between Hearing Loss and Depression, Cognition and Dementia
Addressing hearing loss is associated with improvements in overall wellbeing including mental health by enabling people to communicate more easily with others. This reduces the social isolation and mental health problems associated with hearing loss. Addressing untreated hearing loss improves cognition and may help reduce the risk of dementia.
This webinar will feature presentations from a diverse multi disciplinary panel of experts. The panel will present real world examples from their own perspective and experience as well as discussing the recommendations from the Consensus paper.
Date: 27 July AEST, 26 July EDT, BST
Time: 7am AEST, 5pm EDT, 10pm BST
Chair: Gerard O'Donoghue
Presenters: Craig Buchman, Frank Lin, Dakota Bysouth-Young, Isabelle Mosnier
CI Futures Forum: Cost Implications of CIs
Ensuring that people with hearing loss who could benefit from a CI receive one is not only beneficial for the individual’s wellbeing but improves their chances of employment. This reduces the cost of social care and welfare budgets. It is a cost effective intervention for health systems and has the potential to save money on other health related costs.
