研究表明，有听力问题的人比一般人群更容易出现心理健康问题。尽管存在障碍，针对耳聋和听力障碍者 (HOH) 的心理健康服务已经发展起来，以满足该人群的文化和沟通需求。作者对聋哑人、聋哑人或 HOH 患者的心理健康服务提供者进行了一项全国调查，以了解他们的护理结构和过程领域。结果表明，对于患有严重精神疾病的消费者来说，为聋哑人、聋盲人或 HOH 提供的服务不足。结果还揭示了获得护理和从业者的独特途径。
Research suggests higher prevalence of mental health problems for those with hearing problems than in the general population. Despite barriers, mental health services for persons who are deaf and hard-of-hearing (HOH) have developed to meet the cultural and communication needs of this population. The authors conducted a national survey of mental health service providers to persons who are deaf, deafblind, or HOH, to learn about their structural and process domains of care. Results indicate that services for persons who are deaf, deafblind, or HOH are inadequate for consumers with serious mental illness. Results also uncovered unique pathways to care and practitioners.
