The burden from hearing and vision impairments, greatest for people with dual sensory impairment (DSI), will rise with population ageing. Targeted rehabilitation and support for DSI may improve health and quality of life. This project will pilot an integrated, collaborative service model for assessment and rehabilitation of DSI in older people. The knowledge gained will inform policy development and optimise use of resources to provide the best possible care for older Australians with DSI.

听力和视力障碍的负担，对双重感觉障碍（DSI）的人来说最大，将随着人口老龄化而上升。有针对性的康复和支持DSI可以改善健康和生活质量。该项目将试行一种综合协作服务模式，用于老年人的DSI评估和康复。所获得的知识将为政策制定提供信息，并优化资源的使用，为患有DSI的澳大利亚老年人提供尽可能好的护理。
