There are 34 million people living with diabetes and approximately 34.5 million diagnosed with hearing loss. This presents a complex challenge around the ability to receive and provide critical nutrition information. People with prediabetes have a rate of hearing loss about 30% higher than the general population, while individuals diagnosed with diabetes experience hearing loss twice as often. Cardiovascular disease and kidney disease may further impact the auditory system and require additional nutrition interventions.
This session will identify the impact of hearing loss on the quality of life of a person living with prediabetes, diabetes and other co-morbid conditions. Diabetes and unidentified hearing loss have a devastating impact on the ability to process speech, listen, learn and collaborate. This session will describe potential solutions via role playing, case studies and interactive polls to demonstrate the effectiveness of treatment via in-person and telehealth interactions.
