"We have come a long way since we opened our
doors. We are constantly evolving and keeping up with the latest developments
in hearing technology, improving our diagnostic capability by investing in
training and new equipment that allow us to offer the best solution for our
patients in a customized way.
I believe that the impact of a hearing loss can be
reduced considerably with the right choice of hearing aids according to the
individual needs of each person, by a customized fit - carried out with
advanced equipment that measures the response of the device inside the
patient's ear (Real Ear Measurement) and last but not least, the involvement of
the patient and family in the rehabilitation process- this is very important
for the adaptation's
success, said Kate."
Most people don't understand the impact that hearing
loss has on our quality of life and underestimate the ability of hearing.
However, we all should agree that hearing is one of the most important senses
in the communication with your peers. When we suffer from hearing deprivation,
our social interaction is impaired, we miss out on the experience of sharing
and communicating with family or friends and this can cause conflict and
misunderstandings.This is because an untreated hearing loss will produce a
series of important changes in the organization of the brain. This
"disorganization" can be accompanied by the unwanted presence of
tinnitus, and in many cases, by cognitive decline, by attention and memory
difficulties and, in the last stage, by an overwhelming difficulty in
communication.
It may be that in your day-to-day life, you don't feel
it's time to seek professional help, simply because you might still be able to
follow a conversation in a calm and silent environment. However, if you find
yourself in a noisy place, such as a restaurant, cafe or even when you are with
a group of people and you experience difficulty in understanding what's being
said, this is a strong indication that you are developing a hearing loss.
If you find yourself at this stage, you shouldn't wait
for the problem to get worse. Seek treatment and avoid the negative impacts of
hearing loss.At AudioCare we have the right professional who can advise you on
the best solution for your hearing problem and help you throughout the process.
