Summary

This study tests whether a community-based hearing program—using a low-cost over-the-counter device and hearing rehab—can improve communication and quality of life for older Korean Americans (age 60+) and their care partners. 800 participants will be randomly assigned to get the program right away or wait 6 months. The goal is to reduce hearing handicap and make hearing care more accessible.
