CMOC 2: Training on hearing loss and dementia to raise importance of hearing-related communication | Care staff appreciate the value of [context] and have the skills to address the communication needs of PLWDHL [context]. Strategies may include delivering experiential training that addresses unconscious biases towards ageing, hearing loss, and dementia may be used. | Then, this will enable staff to (1) acknowledge the importance of [mechanism], (2) and feel able to optimise [mechanism] PLWDHL’s hearing communication needs. This is likely to (1) reduce staff feelings of futility [outcomes], (2) reduce PLWDHL’s isolation [outcomes], and (3) increase skills sharing with PLWDHL’s communication partners [outcome]. |
