10 Things That Someone with Hearing Loss Want Others to Know

  1. Get my attention: This will let me focus on you; please only speak one at a time.
  2. Quiet space: Turn off the TV, music, fan/air conditioner; get a quiet spot in the restaurant or if we’re having a meeting.
  3. Hearing loss is exhausting: All of my energy is spent on filling in the blanks because I miss certain sounds.
  4. I am not rude or stupid: I am trying; please repeat when necessary and let me speak.
  5. Be patient: If you get frustrated, it would be better for me to be alone.
  6. Speak clearly and slowly: It takes time for my brain to process speech.
  7. Repeat and rephrase: I will miss some of the things you say; please repeat, rephrase or write it out.
  8. Face me when you speak: Lip-reading and facial expressions help me piece together the conversation when I can’t easily hear you.
  9. Hearing aids are not like eyeglasses: Sounds are amplified, but not 100% clear especially in noisy settings.
  10. Context is needed: If I only hear the first sound of a word, for example “ca--”, knowing if it’s about animals (cat), or an automobile (car) is helpful.

If you, or a loved one, are experiencing hearing loss please contact us at Pure Sound Hearing Aids for a free hearing test and consultation. 

Please be aware that Pure Sound services will only be available by appointment and for essential visits at this time. Essential visits include all appointments that require new hearing aid fittings, repairs, and re-fittings. We will be offering curbside services. If you are visiting us for a repair, we ask that you please wait in your car, while wearing your mask, and place your hearing aids in a clean zip lock bag. A staff member will come to your car to get them. If you are having any issues with your hearing aids, or need supplies, please contact us before visiting one of our office locations.
