Webinar

Sensory changes occur naturally throughout life but, for many, become more noticeable in older adults. In particular, changes in vision, hearing and the vestibular system can negatively impact one’s quality of life. Three panelists will discuss these sensory changes in general terms, share how the changes impact older adult’s lives and explore interventions to address the sensory changes. Panelists will also discuss their interest in their respective specialty area and outline the professional path taken to become an expert in their field. MGS membership required to access video.
