Quick tip to help you decide if your trial hearing aid is worth keeping

If you are trialling a new hearing aid and you can’t decide whether to keep it then try this:

Wear your new hearing aid(s) for a week. Wear them in all the environments you are normally in – at home, at work, at a party, in the street, etc.

After one week of that switch back to wearing your old hearing aids for a day or so (or no aids if this is your first pair) and see what the difference is like.

It’s easy to forget the difference a new pair of hearing aids is making, even after only a week, so swapping back to your old way of hearing gives you something solid to compare against.
