Dual Sensory Impairment
Dual Sensory Impairment refers to the condition where an individual experiences significant challenges in both hearing and vision. This combination can make it difficult for a person to communicate, navigate their environment, and engage in daily activities. The impact of these impairments can vary widely, depending on the severity and the specific combination of sensory loss.
People with dual sensory impairment may require specialized support and resources to enhance their quality of life. Tools such as hearing aids, braille, and assistive technology can help bridge the gap in communication and accessibility. Early intervention and tailored education programs are essential for fostering independence and improving overall well-being.
