At-home hearing tests become new normal in post-Covid era

-

IT is difficult to determine the full impact COVID-19 has had on our lives. Restrictio­ns on where we go, who we see, and when, have impacted our physical and mental health.

In particular, as successive lockdowns restricted surgeries, clinics and medical centres to all but emergency cases, it seems that the voices of those struggling with hearing loss simply stopped being heard.

DEAFENING SILENCE

Where once there were positive social relationsh­ips – so critical in maintainin­g the wellbeing of those with hearing difficulti­es – suddenly there was silence. And visiting the High Street for help was no longer an option.

It’s safe to say Covid-19 brought sweeping changes to our daily routines. Whilst some have already proven temporary, others look like they are here to stay. And for good reason.

One such change has been pioneered by leading independen­t hearing aid provider, Hearmore UK. Their free in-your-own-home hearing tests have proven hugely popular.

Booking is easy. One free phone call is all it takes to arrange for one of Hearmore’s fully qualified audiologis­ts to visit you at home – often within 48 hours – to carry out your profession­ally recognised hearing test.

Instant results let you address your hearing concerns immediatel­y with your audiologis­t, who will explain the range of hearing aid options bestsuited to your hearing loss.

AT YOUR CONVENIENC­E

Hearmore UK is a well-establishe­d independen­t and impartial provider, and their audiologis­ts are qualified to offer you free expert hearing advice.

Another bonus of this convenient service is that you can have a friend or family member at home with you to help with any questions and for your added peace of mind.

During lockdown I found myself using my phone much more than usual. I could really notice how bad my hearing had become.

I contacted Hearmore UK for a free at-home hearing test after seeing their ad in the paper. I called on a Tuesday and they sent an audiologis­t to my home on the Thursday!

From start to finish, the process was easy, fuss-free, friendly and profession­al.

The audiologis­t was clearly knowledgea­ble. He asked me a few questions and I had some of my own. His answers were refreshing­ly jargon-free and he was so patient.

The hearing test itself was quick and easy. Afterwards, my audiologis­t discussed the results and the full extent of my hearing loss. He explained a range of solutions which were best-suited to my own specific hearing requiremen­ts.

I recommend Hearmore UK for your at-home hearing test. You won’t regret it! Diane Bignall, Kettering
