How Does Hearing Loss Affect Your Family?

Hearing loss can affect your ability to communicate with family and friends as well as your performance at work or at school. Research has also shown that hearing loss can affect a person’s quality of life and perceived health status.

One area that has not received a great deal of attention is the effect on people around the person who has a hearing loss. Can hearing loss interfere with personal relationships? Do the communication difficulties caused by hearing loss affect relationships with wife or husband, children and friends? Yes, indeed.

Research proves that hearing loss has significant effects on family relationships. Ironically, the closer the relationship is, the greater the effects of the hearing loss. These effects can be categorized according to the tendency of an individual to deny the hearing loss and the person’s frustrated efforts to cope with the hearing loss.
