As you set out to select a hearing aid, you should consider both your hearing loss treatment needs and your personal preferences. The hearing aids you choose should meet your treatment needs in every area, including:
- Improved General Health
- Improved Professional Services
- Improved Emotional Well-Being
Patients who treat their hearing loss have also been shown to have higher quality of life and self-esteem than those who do not seek treatment.
A study of 2,000 patients with hearing loss found that up to a third of them saw improvements in their:
- Romance
- Sense of humor
- Mental health
- Emotional health
- Physical health
- Sense of safety
- Self-confidence
- Feelings about self
- Sense of independence
- Work relationships
