1. Don’t be scared and find out more

Find out how hearing works, and what signs or levels of hearing loss there are. In addition to information on the internet or in books, ask relatives or acquaintances if they can share their experiences. You should also talk to your doctor or hearing care professional and get a hearing test.

2. Find a professional

A hearing care professional will examine your hearing/your current situation and suggest a solution that best suits your needs and lifestyle.

3. Prepare for the visit

To improve the quality of your visit, prepare some information about your lifestyle and hearing situations:

  • Be open. If you are worried about trying hearing aids/complexed about hearing loss or worried about the high cost, make sure you discuss it with a specialist who can answer your questions and help you find the best solution.
  • Accept positively the changes that are taking place.
