An Investigation into the Communication Barriers Faced by Older Adults with Both Sensory and Cognitive Impairment

This research is investigating the communication barriers faced by older adults with both sensory (vision and/or hearing) impairment as well as cognitive impairment and how these barriers impact quality of life. This research is important because understanding the communication barriers faced by this population will in turn help guide necessary policy and intervention services that will help improve the quality of life of this vulnerable population.

The research team is seeking carers (over the age of 18) who are currently providing any level of care to a person over the age of 65, still living at home and has any degree of both sensory (vision and/or hearing) impairment and cognitive impairment, to complete a short, 15-minute, anonymous survey.
