6. Make notes at the back of this booklet,
write down difficult situations and describe
what any unpleasant noises were like. This
information will help your hearing healthcare
professional to fine-tune the devices better
for you.
7. Involve your family and friends in this
familiarization period. For example,
ask someone to set the television to a
comfortable volume.
8. When you are beginning to get used to
wearing the hearing aids, wear them in more
difficult listening environments such as the
office, at parties or in restaurants. This can
be difficult even for people who can hear
normally. Give yourself time to regain your
ability to hear in these difficult situations.
9. Make your hearing aids part of your everyday
life and be patient with yourself until you
have retrained yourself to interpret the
sounds correctly.
