What are some common signs of hearing loss?

Common signs of hearing loss include…

  • Struggling to understand what’s being said in groups or whenever there’s background noise
  • Missing parts of conversations
  • Frequently asking people to repeat themselves
  • Feeling as though everyone is mumbling
  • Your spouse or family members complain about how loud you listen to the radio or the television

What is an audiogram?

An audiogram is a graphic representation of your hearing test results. During your hearing test, you’ll be presented with sounds at different frequencies and intensities. Your clinician will plot the softest sound you can hear at each frequency on the graph. This will be used to determine whether you have a hearing loss, the degree of your hearing loss, and if necessary, your hearing aid options.

Why was I advised to bring a friend or family member to my appointment?
Hearing Solutions recommends, if possible, that you bring a friend or family member with you to your hearing evaluation appointment for additional support, as test results will be discussed, along with the effects of hearing loss, communication tips, and any hearing aid recommendations. If you’re diagnosed with hearing loss, your Audiologist or Hearing Instrument Specialist will also conduct a demonstration of what hearing aids sound like. Having a familiar voice present allows you to make a more accurate assessment of the benefit of amplification devices. Your spouse, family member or friend may talk to you in both quiet and in simulated noise to see how well you can hear them while wearing hearing instruments.
