Hi. We have an appointment next week to get tested for my mom’s hearing loss and decide on which device to order.
the receptionist told me to do some research to see what I think would work. She is extremely not technologically-savvy, so all of those fancy ones with apps/cell phone control mean nothing, but I am finding that they are the ones that get highly rated.
any help with what worked for you?
They benefit him immeasurably. They have slowed his cognitive decline by improving his connection to others, which has kept him interested and curious about the world around him. It was worth the trouble.
And keep in mind the life expectancy of HAs is only about 5 years so depending on her age this will only be the first in a long line of devices
Do all the reading up on options you can. Like vacuum cleaners, it is hard to get the right one. And honestly I never saw people "happy" with either hearing aids or dentures. There's always some problem or another.
