Hearing Loss & Your Family
Your hearing impacts your family… we can help you all communicate better.
Hearing loss is a family affair.
Hearing loss can have an impact on one’s whole family in a variety of subtle ways. Old communication habits that used to suit the family unit just fine may become less than ideal when a member begins to lose his or her hearing. For instance, talking to one another from the other room, with the TV on, just won’t work anymore. These types of small, subtle changes can lead to stress and frustration.
Hearing loss can also cause the person suffering from it to feel less comfortable communicating in general, causing them to hold back. This can result in hurt feelings and confusion on the part of other family members.
