What you'll learn
“Deaf people experience depression and anxiety at higher rates and at an earlier age compared to the general population as well as finding it difficult to get help (Kushalnagar et al 2019)”
Adult Deaf Specialist Mental Health services are unique in their demands and composition. These are services provided specifically for Deaf patients, whether that is on an in-patient ward or out in the community. Deaf clinical staff are a key part of this provision.
