The client may become angry,frustrated,and depressed by an inability to hear and may respond appropriately.The inability to hear often isolates the client from the world,as depicted by sitting in a chair all day long,the perception of the family being distant,and no one asking for an opinion or joking around.The nurse must be sensitive to the depression resulting from the sensory isolation of hearing loss.If hearing aids are working so that the client can clearly hear a choir,psychosocial issues may be less of a problem.
