Sensory Impairment - Under 65

Most typically this will relate to either the deaf or hard of hearing or the blind or partially sighted.

Many care homes are geared up to make life as comfortable as possible for those who are hard of hearing or partially sighted. However, many homes cannot take residents who are deaf or blind. There are, however, a number of specialist homes that cater specifically for those who are deaf or blind.

Deaf or blind people, or those searching on their behalf, should not limit their search to just these homes, however. Generally, people who have sensory impairments also have other care needs, and these overall needs should all be taken into account when choosing care.
