"Living with Hearing Loss" Group

Monday, September 14, 2009
9 a.m. - 11 a.m.

A five-week Living With Hearing Loss support group will begin holding its weekly meetings today.

Even the most advanced technologies available in today's hearing aids cannot always compensate completely for a hearing loss. These educational and support groups provide an excellent opportunity to gain information and to interact with others who are experiencing similar issues.

Topics covered include:

  • Understanding hearing and hearing loss
  • Interpreting the results of your hearing test
  • Hearing aids and other devices
  • Strategies for coping with difficult listening situations
  • Principles of speech reading

Groups will meet in The University of Arizona's Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences building.

To register for the group class, or for more information, call 520-621-7070.

Admission: $45, includes communication partner, materials and parking
Audience: All, Small (1-50)
