Health Considerations
If soreness or skin irritation develops, discontinue wearing your

Care Professional. Minor fit adjustments can often correct
this condition. If soreness persists, discontinue wearing the
hearing instrument and see your physician. If excessive earwax
accumulates when wearing your hearing instruments, consult
your Hearing Care Professional.

An Audiologist is qualified by training and experience to assist in
the evaluation and rehabilitation of a child with a hearing loss.

evaluated and that you may be considered a candidate for

The physician will refer you to a Hearing Care Professional, as

The Hearing Care Professional will conduct a hearing instrument
