Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to systems including ear-worn devices that can be used to aid vestibular rehabilitation exercises for ear-worn device wearers. In an embodiment a vestibular rehabilitation management system is included having an ear-worn device including a control circuit, a microphone in communication with the control circuit, and a motion sensor in communication with the control circuit, wherein the vestibular rehabilitation management system is configured to evaluate a wearer of the ear-worn device, and select a vestibular training exercise based on the evaluation. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to devices and related systems and methods for detecting falls. In an embodiment, a hearing assistance device is included having a first control circuit and a first motion sensor. The first motion sensor can be disposed in a fixed position relative to a head of a subject wearing the hearing assistance device. A first microphone and a first transducer for generating sound can be in operational communication with the first control circuit. The first control circuit can be configured to evaluate data from one or more sensors to detect a possible fall of a subject in physical contact with the hearing assistance device. The device can be configured to wirelessly transmit data regarding a possible fall to another device including an indication of whether the possible fall was detected binaurally or monoaurally. Other embodiments are included herein.
