Description
This free workshop by Beauport Hearing Care focuses on practical skills for care givers to assist with social strategies and hearing technology questions. Tech topics include considerations for hearing aid selection, proper hearing aid use, daily cleaning, and troubleshooting typical problems. In addition, a “Better Hearing and Listening Etiquette” will be discussed and demonstrated. The “Etiquette” recommends simple strategies for family and friends, co-workers, and community members to mitigate or eliminate many kinds of communication barriers (not just hearing loss). Finally, the “Etiquette” comprises the core of our popular “Happy Couples with Hearing Loss” workshop – a team effort really works!
FREE. Space is limited. Reservations are required: RSVP to SeniorCare at https://seniorcareinc.org/event/better-hearing-listening-presentation/ or 978-281-1750.
