A professional can best assess your hearing needs

Contributors

hearing healthcareYou’ve noticed issues with your hearing, and family members and friends seem to confirm it.

The final answer will come when you’re able to consult with a qualified hearing care professional who can tell you for sure whether there is a hearing loss and recommend the best course of action.

People experience relief when they learn the facts and gain a strong sense of control over their situation.

It’s very easy to schedule a visit with your hearing care professional. During your visit, he or she will conduct a hearing examination and let you know your results.

Your hearing care professional will discuss your hearing history to understand what factors have influenced your hearing, and also to get more information on your personal hearing needs.

– How you think you are doing in different situations

– What you are doing to deal with hearing issues in your everyday life

– Your hearing wish list: in what situations do you need improvement

The visit may include a hearing evaluation and a listening experience with hearing devices, when appropriate.

As your appointment approaches, it is a good idea to start thinking about these questions.
