What should I expect after getting hearing technology?
Great question! Here are three tips to keep in mind as you experience a whole new world of sound.
BE PATIENT
Your devices may not sound normal at first, and even your own voice may seem strange or “off.” With time and practice, your brain can adjust and interpret the sounds you’ve been missing.
EXPECT ADJUSTMENTS
Using your hearing aids to the fullest not only supports better hearing but also identifies opportunities for fine-tuning. Try to document your observations, which can help us adjust the devices as needed.
OPTIMIZE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
Whether you’re conversing in person or by video, reducing background noise and looking at the person who’s speaking support active listening and hearing.
