HEARING ASSESSMENT FAQ’s
WHEN SHOULD I HAVE A HEARING ASSESSMENT?
Regular eye examinations are often accepted as the norm. Your hearing should be given the same level of care as part of managing your general health and wellbeing.
This is particularly relevant as we age due to the gradual deterioration of our hearing, however people can be affected by a loss of hearing at any stage in their life.
We therefore encourage everyone to consider having regular ear health checks and hearing assessments.
