Preparation before you go
To help you quickly get to the issues that will improve your hearing, think about which situations are most challenging for you. Talk to friends or family members about anything they notice. Make notes so you can tell the hearing care professional.
Questions to think about:
- What do you struggle to hear?
- What can you hear well?
- In which situations is communication most important?
- In which situation would you most like to hear better in'?
- What do you do when you struggle to hear?
- How do others notice when you struggle to hear?
