Hearing aids have several adjustment possibilities, which allow flexible adaptation to various sounds in your environment. Using the computer, your hearing care professional can safely modify the programming of your hearing aids in order to maximize their settings according to recommended guidelines and in accordance to your individual needs.
Before fitting the extended-wear hearing aid, the hearing care professional will use a light microscope to check the ear canal. If there is any debris or earwax there, he will gently remove it with a tool. Then the hearing care professional will place the hearing aid in the canal, safely and comfortably.
First visit
During the first visit, the hearing care professional will ask you about your main hearing difficulties and will make a complete assessment of your needs. This is in order to give you the best possible recommendation and offer you the best hearing aid solutions appropriate for your condition.
Delivery
On your second visit, we will remit your hearing aids to you and adjust them. Adjustments are made based on your hearing test, using a computer and monitoring equipment to safely ensure the correct amplification level of your hearing aids. The hearing care professional will then explain the use and maintenance of your hearing devices, as well as give you advice to facilitate your hearing adaptation.
The screening test takes place in a soundproof booth, lasts about 30 minutes, and is used to assess your hearing abilities. The hearing care professional will then review the results with you, and will be able to advise you and make the proper recommendations if necessary.
In addition to the daily maintenance you provide to your hearing aids, we recommend that you see your hearing care professional semi-annually or annually to ensure that your hearing aids are in good working order as well as to have them thoroughly cleaned. He will also check that they are still the right fit for your needs.
Most hearing aid manufacturers now offer a rechargeable option for their hearing aids. Some are built around a lithium battery and work with an induction charger. This is an environmentally-friendly solution.
