The decline or total loss of any of the five senses has an enormous impact on an older person's independence and the quality of life they enjoy. One of the key responsibilities for carers in an aged care setting is to identify signs of sensory loss and develop a range of techniques to assist the client's day to day needs in areas including communication and personal safety. This interview led program outlines the difficulties and behaviors a carer may encounter as a result of a client's sensory impairment as well as providing practical strategies and management plans to assist carers in meeting the needs of clients with sensory impairment. This is an ideal resource for students and workers in aged care.
