Description

Does hearing loss cause dementia? Teepa explores what headlines often miss and why simple answers rarely illustrate the full picture of complex brain change. You’ll learn practical first questions—is it hearing, comprehension, or both?—as well as techniques that help keep people engaged. The takeaways: be skeptical of one-liners, stay curious, and choose practical strategies that help improve day-to-day interactions.

Improving Communications in Dementia Care offers deeper insight into how hearing and comprehension challenges can look alike—and what to do about it. Learn practical strategies for sensitive conversations and keeping connections strong, even when communication changes.
