Clinicenta Hearing Aid Fitting
What happens at the hearing aid fitting appointment?
The hearing aid fitting will normally last for one hour but we advise you to plan for one hour and 15 minutes in case more time is necessary. At this appointment the audiologist will use a computer to programme your hearing aids so that they suit you and give you the best results. The audiologist will also use equipment to check that when your hearing aid is inserted, it produces the right sound levels in your ear. You will be shown how to use and care for your hearing aids and how to get the best from them. Clinicenta NHS Hearing Aid Services will provide all the continued support, maintenance and repair services you require to make best use of your hearing aids and you will be informed about arrangements for these services.
During your hearing aid fitting appointment, you will receive the following written information:
- Information about how your hearing aids work
- Information explaining about follow up, maintenance, repair and ongoing support services
- Where you can get NHS batteries in your local community
- A NHS Hearing Aid Record Book so that you can get batteries
- A copy of your hearing test (audiogram) for your information
- Information about additional services, organisations and equipment that may be useful to you
