About two-thirds of people over the age of 70 experience hearing loss. This condition is significantly associated with feelings of loneliness among older adults. Hearing loss can lead to difficulties in communication, which often results in social isolation. This isolation can then contribute to increased feelings of loneliness, as those with hearing loss may find it harder to engage in conversations and maintain social connections. These factors together can significantly impact the mental and emotional well-being of older adults. I am surprised you discuss how technology can help and yet leave out hearing technology.
To help, I believe we need to know when and how to make the connection. Technology can help. I agree with the needs. Aside from those with hearing difficulties, I also believe that those suffering from aphasia needs help as well. This is challenging. I look forward to hearing more on this subject.
This is very useful information. I look forward to my weekly Zoom calls with my brother and sister where share family memories and interesting articles we have found since our last meeting. We also share funny online pictures and YouTube videos we have seen.
