Frequently asked questions
Will I have normal hearing with hearing aids in?
No, the hearing aids can only work with the hearing that you have
left. It will sound strange to start off with, but with perseverance it
will sound more natural. It should take the strain out of listening
though.
Will my own voice change by wearing hearing aids?
It is very common that your own voice may sound slightly different
to what you are used to hearing, this is because you have been used
to hearing your own voice with a hearing loss. When the aid(s) are
initially fitted the sound of your own voice can sound a little strange
as it is now being amplified. Your own voice may appear a little
quieter to others.
What if I don’t like the sound of my own voice?
To start with, your voice may sound unfamiliar to you but after 2-6
weeks this should subside with regular use of the hearing aids. For
some patients this may take longer than 2-6 weeks.
Is there anything else that could help, as well as
a hearing aid?
Yes, social care can give out extra equipment for the TV, the doorbell
and the phone. Please see the contact details and information
supplied in this booklet.
