Wondering if need hearing aids

How to know if I need hearing aids?

Understanding the early signs of hearing loss is crucial. You might be a good candidate for hearing aids if you:

  • Have difficulty following conversations, especially in noisy environments.
  • Frequently ask others to repeat themselves.
  • T urn up the volume on your TV or radio to levels uncomfortable for others.
  • Think people around you are mumbling.
  • Miss common sounds like doorbells, alarms, or phone calls.
  •  Avoid social situations because hearing well feels challenging.


Recognizing these signs is the first step toward improving your hearing. A quick online hearing screening and scheduling a comprehensive hearing test with a HearUSA Hearing Care Professional can help you understand and protect your hearing health.

Help a loved one

How can I convince someone they need hearing aids?

Starting a conversation about hearing aids can be challenging. While it may be difficult, approaching your friend or family member with care and understanding can go a long way in helping them take control of their hearing health. 

1. Choose the right time. Find a quiet, relaxed moment to talk when they’re comfortable and open to listening.

2. Focus on benefits. Talk about how better hearing may improve their daily life, such as being able to fully participate in conversations, reconnecting with loved ones, or hearing their favorite sounds again.

3. Share observations, not criticisms. Gently point out specific instances where you noticed them having a hard time hearing, like missing a doorbell, turning up the TV, or struggling to follow conversations. This can help them take notice of how hearing loss may be impacting their life.

4. Suggest a professional exam. Let them know that a hearing test with a hearing care professional can give them insight into their hearing. Maybe offer to go with them. You can also encourage them to sign up for a free hearing aid trial, like the one we offer at HearUSA. This way, they can experience the difference for themselves without any pressure.

5. Be patient and supportive. Adjusting to the idea of hearing aids takes time. Reassure them that you’re there to support them every step of the way and you just want them to live their best life.

We're here to make the journey to better hearing easier — for both you and your loved one.
