Do I Have Hearing Loss?

If you have been noticing that

you just are not hearing like you

used to…could it be possible

you have hearing loss?

There a few questions you

can ask yourself to help you

determine whether you have

a hearing impairment.

•Are you more frequently asking for

others to repeat themselves?

•Do others seem to mumble and speak

unclearly?

•Do you feel particularly tired or tense

after a conversation?

•Does your tension and strain seem

particularly bad in group

conversations?

•Do you miss parts of conversation?

•Do you miss soft or high-pitched

sounds that others seem to hear?

•Is it necessary for you to see the

face of the person you are

speaking with to understand them?

•Do you feel like you can hear, but

you just do not always

understand?

If the answer to any of these

questions was yes, you may

have a loss of hearing.

Contact an audiologist or

hearing healthcare provider to

get an appointment for

evaluation! A complete hearing

assessment will be completed

to determine your current

hearing status.

Once your results have been

obtained, your provider will be

able to thoroughly explain your

hearing impairment, its

implications, and your options

for treatment.
