SUMMARY:Better Hearing Webinar: Considerations for Atypical Hearing Losses
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss our next Better Hearing Webinar on Wednesday June 1st at 4:00pm ET on: \nConsiderations for Atypical Hearing Losses\nThe two leading causes of hearing loss in adults are age and excessive noise exposure. Both age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) and noise-induced hearing loss lead to high-frequency hearing loss in later adulthood. When fitting hearing aids to a high frequency hearing loss\, there are certain strategies employed in both the physical fit as well as how the hearing aids are programmed to the loss. But not everyone has a hearing loss due to age or noise-exposure. In this month’s webinar\, Dr. Caitlyn Whitson is going to discuss other types and configurations of hearing losses as well as considerations for those hearing losses that do not fit into the “typical” pattern. Access our webinar on the day of the event by clicking the link below or copy & paste it into your web browser.When prompted\, type in the passcode: 983040https://zoom.us/j/95362723089?pwd=WHlQMzRSOTVTRGpRQ3RyMitSMTloZz09Alternatively\, you may use the Meeting ID and passcode below for access from your desktop or mobile Zoom account.Meeting ID: 912 0522 8961Passcode: 983040Or dial in to: 1-888-475-4499 US Toll-freeMeeting ID: 912 0522 8961Passcode: 983040 \nIf you need immediate assistance logging in on the day of the event\, first check that you have used the correct link or meeting ID and passcode\, and then call our office at 919-493-7980.
