Get the Scoop on the New Hearing Loop
Hearing loss comes on gradually and can have a big impact on a person’s life. Many people with hearing loss will say they can hear just fine but that they have difficulty understanding speech, particularly in background noise, watching TV or while attending religious services, a lecture or theater performances, even when using hearing aids. This informative and practical lecture help you hear beyond hearing aids. Dr. Sterkens will explain the benefits of our recently installed hearing loop in the Living Room at the Hefter Center, how to best get in the loop with hearing aids, AND without. Topics covered: Hearing loss, hearing aids, hearing tests, how to buy hearing aids that serve YOUR needs and how the hearing loop can help everyone hear! Handouts will be provided.
