Hearing instrument expectations
A hearing instrument will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a hearing impairment
resulting from organic conditions. Consistent use of the hearing instrument is recommended. In most cases,
infrequent use does not permit you to attain full benefit from it.
The use of a hearing instrument is only part of hearing rehabilitation and may need to be supplemented by
auditory training and instructions in lip-reading.
