The average age of the Quebec population is rising rapidly, and cognitive troubles due to aging are an increasingly significant cause of disability. These cognitive troubles can have a negative impact on memory, judgment, attention, learning and problem solving. In turn, the ability to remain autonomous and enjoy a good quality of life also suffer.
Since hearing loss is the third most common chronic health problem among seniors, it is vital to keep an eye out for symptoms. An emerging hearing problem can make communication difficult and result in social withdrawal, which can lead to isolation, loneliness and effects on the person’s cognitive, physical and mental health. What’s more, studies have noted that hearing loss can be a predictive factor of cognitive decline in elderly patients.
To prevent cognitive decline, make an appointment with an audioprosthetist as soon as you notice signs of hearing loss.
There is a link between hearing loss and disorders that affect the cognitive system in older people. Research has shown that cognitive disorders occur much more often in seniors who have hearing problems.
This is why it is recommended to test the hearing of older people who are showing early signs of Alzheimer’s or other cognitive disorders.
Taking care of your hearing health will help you age well and live well!
