Hearing loss can cause difficulty with communication for boththe person who has hearing loss and the communication partner. Hearing devices (ex. hearing aids, cochlear implants) can help, but they do not completely fix the problem. Research supports that use of specific strategies, either alone or in addition to hearing devices, can help to improve participation and enjoyment in activities. These classes will review strategies to use along with reviewing hearing technology to improve communication. Family & friends are welcome to partake in this program with their loved ones. Presentation is in person, closed captioning available.
