Program Description. Hearing loss is a common issue of aging that is usually associated with increasing difficulties with understanding speech in the presence of background noise. Hearing aids have significantly improved in recent decades, but they have limits, especially in public facilities where background noise and distance can interfere with speech clarity. This informative program takes a deep dive into hearing, hearing loss, hearing aids, why hearing in noise is challenging, and explains how the Americans with Disabilities Act can help. Learn about Best Practices in hearing care and the types of technologies available to help overcome hearing aid limitations. Become an informed consumer to get the hearing care and technology that fits your needs and budget.
