  • What is Hearing Impairment?

    NDIS Hearing Impairment

    Hearing Impairment is a condition that affects a person’s ability to hear sounds clearly, either partially or completely. It can be present from birth or develop over time due to illness, injury, ageing, prolonged noise exposure, or genetic factors. Hearing impairment may impact communication, social interaction, learning, and everyday activities, making daily tasks more challenging without the right support. 

    People with hearing impairment use hearing aids, cochlear implants, assistive listening devices, or alternative communication methods such as Auslan. With appropriate, person-centred support and access to services, individuals can build confidence, maintain independence, and participate fully in their community.
