When
hearing aids are fitted, they are adjusted individually using a
sophisticated computer fitting system. This provides precise fitting
of amplification needed to compensate for each person's hearing
loss and lifestyle.
100%
Digital Hearing Aids
The most advanced hearing instruments today feature 100% Digital
signal processing amplifiers, permitting fully automatic control
of hearing aid performance in a wide variety of listening conditions.
Hearing
aid features may include multiple frequency bands and programs,
directional microphones, background noise reduction and more. Benefits
to users include clearer, more natural sound and the ability to
hear and understand speech in difficult environments.
Hearing
Care Center offers hearing instruments from world leaders in hearing
aid technology, and also offers 100% Digital hearing aids, digitally-programmable
analog and conventional non-programmable hearing aids. All are available
in all sizes and styles and for all degrees of hearing loss ranging
from powerful behind-the-ear models and in-the-ear styles from full
shell to the nearly invisible completely-in-the- canal (CIC) models.
Verification and Validation
Performance assessment, verification and validation for each client
are as important as precision hearing aid fitting. In addition to
real-ear performance measurement, Hearing Care Center is uniquely
equipped with a special sound room featuring a multi-speaker audio
system. Using special recordings, the hearing aid user can be placed
in many different everyday listening situations, such as: restaurants,
cocktail parties, a business conference, a busy street corner, a
shopping mall, a concert hall, an intimate jazz club and many others
without leaving our office. The hearing aid user can experience
realistic situations and can assess the benefits of the advanced
features available with the newest technology.
Referral
Network
If medical treatment is indicated by the results of the hearing
evaluation, clients are referred to appropriate medical professionals
for examination and treatment.
Hearing
Care Center has a referral network to professionals who help in
other aspects of communication disorders, such as speech-language
pathologists, specialists in education of the deaf and hard of hearing
and public and private agencies serving the needs of hearing impaired
individuals of all ages.
