Get your relative down to the GP and ask for a referral to Audiology
and/or ENT.
The biggest hurdle will be getting elderly relative to admit that
they *may* have a problem and that *perhaps* a visit to the GP and
referral would be a good thing to do.
The problem is mobility. My relative is in a nursing home. Logically I
ought to be able to persuade her GP to make the necessary referral, but
am I likely to be able to get an Audiology specialist to make a visit?
Can they take whatever equipment they need with them?
Phone them and ask. Usually the hospital should arrange transport if
needed. It really should not be that difficult.
