(1 hour webinar) Hearing loss affects millions of people and goes beyond just making it hard to hear conversations. Join audiologist Juliëtte Sterkens and Wynne Whyman, who has had hearing loss since childhood, for a practical session on why you should pay attention to your hearing. Whether you are experiencing hearing changes yourself, are a long-time hearing aid user, or want to support a family member or friend, this session will make you a better-informed consumer. Learn why a hearing care provider who follows Best Practices can matter more than hearing aid technology, strategies for improving communication at home or on the go, options for situations when hearing aids are of little help, and how assistive listening technologies can help you hear great in large venues. Practical handouts and resources will be provided.
