Did you know you can maximize your auditory processing (the way your brain processes and understands speech) with properly fitted hearing aids? Hearing aids help you by preserving the function of the hearing cells in your ears. This enables your processing and memory skills to be preserved instead of atrophying over time due to not having appropriate levels of auditory (sound) stimulation.
Hearing aids enable you to stay young, active, and engaged. Attending to your hearing health can add years of independence to your life. Ormond Beach Hearing Center provides hearing aid repairs for almost every brand of hearing aid. We offer this service no matter where you purchased them This includes Siemens, Unitron, Audina, Interton, Phonak, ReSound, Rexton, Starkey, Oticon, and Widex.
Falls are the second leading cause of accidental or unintentional injury deaths worldwide. Each year an estimated 646,000 individuals die from falls globally. Adults older than 65 years of age suffer the greatest number of fatal falls. Our audiologists are licensed to provide falls risk assessments in tandem with hearing evaluations. They will advise as to how a home should be modified and strategies you can implement to minimize the danger of falls. For example, searching for a lost phone that is ringing is a major cause of falls and there are strategies to overcome this risk.
What else does Ormond Hearing Center offer besides hearing aids, hearing aid repairs, and hearing tests? CaptionCall telephones, free for those with hearing loss, can only be approved and provided by a licensed audiologist like Dr. Alvarez. This is a captioned telephone service that provides captions on an easy-to-read screen while a hearing impaired person speaks on the phone. We can recommend custom plugs to keep water out of your ears and avoid infections as well as simple remedies for the ears to keep them healthy after swimming. We also provide custom-fit ear protection.
