There is no one-size-fits-all hearing aid, which is why the selection and adjustment process of a hearing aid is so crucial when customising each device to fit the wearer's needs and lifestyle.
What truly makes each hearing experience unique is customising it to suit each individual's needs. This may include aligning it with each individual's lifestyle by adjusting it to suit social situations, noisy environments or specific activities.
Customising hearing aids has many benefits, including improved hearing in specific frequencies, reduced background noise for clearer communication, and adapting to various environments, such as crowded places or meetings. This targeted customisation can help hearing aid wearers in social settings, reducing isolation and improving the quality of their relationships.
The inital fitting of your hearing aid is done by a hearing care professional, who ensures that the hearing aid is properly placed and adjusted. The fitting phase ensures your hearing aid is working correctly and is a comfortable fit.
Then, comes the testing or trial phase, which ensures the hearing aid effectively addresses your specific hearing needs and lifestyle.
During this phase, the audiologist makes specific adjustments to the hearing aid based on your feedback to optimise your hearing aid's performance and ensure it meets your needs more effectively.
