Tips for Better Communication
42
•
Develop realistic expectations of what your hearing aids can
and cannot do
•
Better hearing with hearing aids is a learned skill combining
desire, practice and patience
For Your Family and Friends
Your family and friends are also affected by your hearing loss.
Request that they:
•
Get your full attention before beginning to speak
•
Look at you or sit face-to-face in a quiet room
•
Speak clearly and at a normal rate and level; shouting can
actually make understanding more difficult
•
Rephrase rather than repeat the same words; different words
may be easier to understand
•
Minimize distractions while speaking
