Abstract
25 older adults with vision loss participated in a communication scree n which included hearing, speech-language, and a self-assessment of co mmunication. 64% failed at least two of the three screenings, suggesti ng that routine screening might identify older adults with vision loss who need rehabilitation in communication as a complement to visual re habilitation.
