Coping with the rapidly increasing occurrence of age-related hearing loss has become an important issue in Japan, which has entered a super-aged society. Age-related hearing loss, particularly linked to dementia, is drawing attention. Hearing aids can help older people with hearing loss to be more active communicators. As a result, their cognitive function can be expected to improve, thus allowing them to live independently in the community. In this research, the author reports on the current situation of the hearing disorders, particularly age-related hearing loss, surrounding speech-language-hearing therapists.
