Know What to Expect From Your Hearing Aids with Counseling

While some users may proclaim hearing aids a success because they allow them to hear, engage in conversations, and listen to the sounds they love, the reality is hearing aids are not a cure for hearing loss and have some limitations. In essence, hearing aids from our hearing specialists in Brooklyn, NY, are artificial ear canals that serve as a conduit for better hearing.

The Importance of Counseling

Our experienced audiologists will sit down with you to discuss the realities of what to expect with your hearing aids. By doing so, we hope to help you maximize the benefits of having these devices.

Ar your counseling visit, our audiologists will ensure your hearing aids fit comfortably and that they are programmed and adjusted accordingly to your hearing loss goals and lifestyle. Once they are turned on and placed in your ears, our hearing specialist will measure volume levels to your personal range, discuss care and maintenance, teach you how to adjust them for various environments, and show you how to change their batteries.

The Adjustment Period & More

You should know that hearing aids work best at about 10’ – 12’ and that it takes 3 – 6 months to learn how to hear better with them. It will also take up to 30 days to learn how to use them properly and to adjust to having hearing aids. During your counseling, you will also be given a schedule of when you will wear them incrementally longer and longer each day. We will also make a follow-up appointment to check on their fitting.

Finally, here at ClearSound Hearing Centers, we are proud to say that while nationally, 18% of users return their hearing aids, only a mere 2% of our patients return theirs. In other words, we have a 98% success rate of keeping hearing aids on our patients!
