McClimens, Alex; Brennan, Siobhan; Hargreaves, Pauline – British Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2015
We undertook this project because we believed that hearing loss experienced by the target population was greater than the referral figures suggested. Therefore, we set up a trial service initiative designed to examine the efficacy of different referral routes into audiology services for adults with learning disability. This retrospective analysis…
