Hearing & Communication Support for Seniors in BC
4 resources listed
Hearing loss is common as we age, and it can quietly affect everything from safety to staying connected with the people you love. The good news: several provincial and federal programs can help cover the cost of hearing aids, assistive devices, and communication support.
In a care setting, trouble hearing can make it harder for your loved one to follow instructions or join in — so knowing what's available helps you speak up for the right accommodations on their behalf.
