How can I contribute to a successful hearing aid fitting?
•Tell your hearing healthcare professional everything about your lifestyle and about everything that seems to keep you from hearing as well as you would like. The more information you provide, the better the solutions your professional can provide. Your loss needs to be discussed in detail so that the proper recommendations can be made. •Discuss openly your expectations. Make sure that your hearing healthcare professional is able to explain which of your expectations are realistic and which are going to be more difficult to achieve. •You will need to communicate any questions that come up during the fitting and acclimation period. The more feedback you provide your hearing healthcare professional, the better they can fine tune your instruments. •Keeping a diary and sharing your everyday experiences could assist your professional when he/she is trying to make the proper adjustments. The tuning and adjusting of a hearing aid after the fitting can be the most important part of the process
