"Hearing Aid Not Working"

I suffer from loss of hearing due to working in a noisy environment; as a result I wear 2 hearing aids. Recently my left hearing aid stopped working and I contacted the Audiology Department, who fitted me in to their first available appointment.

Having confirmed that the hearing aid was not repairable I was given a new one straightaway that was digitally set to match my hearing loss.

The staff were very efficient and friendly throughout and I had 2 working hearing aids again.

It concerns me the number of people I see not taking sensible precautions to protect their hearing in later life. For me and many of my contemporaries it's too late but younger people be they at work, listening to loud music through their ear pods in their cars, or at night clubs, please protect your hearing - loss of hearing is no fun, I assure you.
