HEARx
Help the one you love come to terms with their
hearing loss.
Acknowledging hearing loss begins with complex
reactions, but the most common one is denial.There
are many reasons why people have denial. Taking
that first step to get a hearing test may confirm their
worst fear – that they do have a hearing loss.
Hearing loss often progresses slowly. People
don’t realize what they are missing in conversations
and how many sounds they no longer hear. It is a
known fact that it takes about 7 years for someone
to acknowledge hearing loss.They may hear well in
some situations – good acoustics, quiet atmosphere
without background noise, one-on-one conversa-
tions with a familiar person. Denial can be a tricky
thing when that person uses it as a defense mecha-
nism: everyone else has the problem – the world
“mumbles”! But most of the time denial goes back
to our society’s historical “taboo” of aging.

To help your loved one move beyond denial -
don’t push too hard. If theTV volume becomes too
loud, look into assistive listening devices forTVs.
Find a phone or handset with stronger volume con-
trol if they are missing phone calls. If they can’t hear
the door bell, alarm clock or smoke alarm, look into
visual/vibrating alerting systems. Use safety as the
motivator to get them to consider taking that hear-
ing test.
It is important to know the other reasons for
making them take a hearing test. Long term un-
checked hearing loss can cause auditory deprivation
(a condition that results in the brain “forgetting”
how to hear and understand speech). 95% of people
with hearing loss can be treated with hearing aids.
Nine out of ten hearing aid users report improve-
ments in quality of life.
At HEARx, our trained professionals can provide
the proper testing to determine hearing loss. With
over 25 locations in NY and NJ, and over 175 in the
US, HearUSA/HEARx is the administrator of the
AARP Hearing Care program www.hearusa.com/
corporate/aarp, designed to help millions of Ameri-
cans aged 50+ who have hearing loss. To schedule
