The number of people over 65 years of age is increasing, and many of those individuals will have sensorineural hearing loss in addition to other chronic health conditions. Future hearing health care providers need to be sensitive to the needs of elderly patients. The purpose of this article is to describe an experiential learning curriculum used in the Doctor of Audiology program in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. The curriculum uses simulations of sensory disorders common in the elderly to transform knowledge and active experience into patient-centered, empathetic counseling skills and strategies to use with older adults with hearing loss.
65岁以上的人口数量正在增加，而且这些人中许多除了患有其他慢性健康问题外，还会有感觉神经性听力损失。未来的听力保健提供者需要对老年患者的需求保持敏感。本文的目的是描述俄克拉荷马大学健康科学中心通信科学与障碍系听力博士项目中使用的一种体验式学习课程。该课程利用老年人常见的感觉障碍模拟，将知识和实践经验转化为以患者为中心、富有同理心的咨询技巧和策略，用于为有听力损失的老年人提供服务。
