Pleased join us Tuesday November 14th, Wednesday November 15th or Thursday November 16th 2017 for a complimentary hearing consultation and demonstration of the Oticon Opn hearing device. Oticon’s Opn line features a mini RITE with a rechargeable option, a mini RITE with telecoil, and a power behind the ear hearing aid. The telecoil feature allows for easier communication over a landline telephone and enables the user to hear better in a looped environment such as a theater or house of worship. The new power hearing aid – OPN BTE 13PP – is a power plus hearing aid meant for people with severe to profound hearing loss and also includes a telecoil. Lastly, Oticon released a new rechargeable kit for use with the OPN mini RITE hearing aid. No more changing batteries! A single over night charge can provide up to 19 hours of use. If you currently use the OPN mini RITE hearing aids they can easily be converted to use rechargeable batteries. What a great option for our patients with dexterity issues or for those who would rather not change the batteries weekly. All of the Opn hearing aids are made for iPhone, meaning the hearing aids connect directly to any Apple product without the need for a streaming device. To find out more about these great new devices call our office at 973-542-4031 to schedule your complimentary hearing consultation and demonstration
Jennifer Finney Boylan contributed an interesting op-ed piece in The New York Times on November 1, 2017. Although hearing aids aren’t cool, at least to look at, they do some really awesome and amazing things like connect to the Internet of Things, in addition to improving your quality of life and the quality of the lives of those around you. Today’s hearing aids do come in fun colors but people, mostly adults, don’t want to make a fashion statement with their hearing aids. How to we improve acceptance? We’re stilling trying to figure that out. Below is the link to the article:
Help The Hearing Group raise awareness of hearing loss. Fact…there are over 36 million people with hearing loss in this country and most of them are under the age of 65 years.
