The holidays are the perfect time to connect with friends and family whether in person, by phone or zoom. However, these connections can be difficult with communication barriers such as hearing loss. For some individuals, hearing loss can put a damper on the festive activities of the season.
Common signs of hearing loss include:
Hearing loss can have a negative impact on a person’s mental and social well-being. A study conducted by the National Council on Aging found people with untreated hearing loss were more likely to report depression and anxiety and were also found to be less social.
Just in time for the holiday season, the Pennsylvania Ear Institute (PEI) wants to give the gift of hearing to as many people as possible. From December 13-17, 2021 PEI will provide complimentary telehealth consultations with our expert Doctors of Audiology to answer your questions about how hearing loss may be affecting you. Connect with us from the comfort of your own home via a secure link on your mobile device or computer.
Through the “Hear for the Holidays” campaign, if your consultation results in a treatment recommendation for hearing aids, we are offering a 10% discount off any level of hearing technology through the end of January 2022.
PEI offers an array of resources and services to help people with hearing loss, including comprehensive hearing evaluations, individualized treatment plans, hearing protection, amplification devices as well as hearing aid cleaning and repair.
