Patients With Hearing Loss

The idea
Patients with hearing loss need communication adapted to them.
In practice
Ask whether they use hearing aids, make sure the aids are in, and adapt how you communicate to what the patient needs.
Where people slip
Document hearing aids and other devices, so every team member knows to check for them and use them at each visit.
