Sensorineural hearing loss is a common chronic condition affecting the health of older adults with impact extending far beyond sensory function.  We will discuss this impact and provide an overview of the management of hearing loss in older patients. Learning Objectives: (1) describe the wide-reaching impact of hearing loss on the older adults; (2) discuss the rehabilitation of older adults with hearing loss using hearing aids; and (3) review the management of older adults with hearing loss when hearing aids no longer provide any benefit.
