The Roger Table Mic II is designed for meetings. Multiple microphones can be connected in a MultiTalker Network to cover large meetings. It selects the person who’s talking and switches automatically between the meeting participants. Roger systems may be reimbursed for work. If you are eligible, our audiologists can help you to apply.

Choosing the right hearing aid and provider can be difficult. Fortunately, Advanced Hearing helps you make an informed choice. Advanced Hearing:
•Does NOT encourage clinicians to sell more expensive hearing aids by setting sales targets and other performance measures
•Does NOT pay clinicians commissions and other incentives for selling hearing aids
•Is NOT owned by companies that manufacture hearing aids.

With one hundred thousand Aussies getting a new hearing aid each year, Mark Sutton discovers that some hearing clinics may be more like sales centres than me...

Using hearing aids successfully (part 4)

Dealing with difficult hearing situations:
1️⃣ Discussions - When several people are speaking at once, move closer to the person you want to hear. Try to position yourself with your back to the noise.

2️⃣ Visiting public places - Try to sit at the front or near a loudspeaker at venues like theatres or places of worship. If possible, sit where you can see the person speaking.

3️⃣ Radio and television - Try to follow the overall meaning instead of each individual word. There are also wireless accessories to suit your hearing aids and address these situations if you need more help.

Using hearing aids successfully (part 3)

The world is a noisy place. Most times, people with no hearing loss can suppress interfering sounds by automatically focusing on the sounds they wish to hear. Your hearing aids will reintroduce you to many sounds you may have forgotten, such as the ticking of a clock🕰, paper being crumpled 📃 , the clicking of heels on the floor 👠, birdsongs🐦 and children laughing👧. As you have not heard these sounds in a long time it is very possible that you have lost this ability to ignore irrelevant sounds. The best way to re-learn this skill is to wear your hearing aids regularly.

If you are struggling, ask your audiologist to add a “Noise reduction” program to your hearing aids!

Wearing hearing aids and hearing a greater range of sounds might tire you out at first 😫. Make a commitment to get used to your hearing aids. Your positive attitude and desire to hear better are crucial factors to your success 👏. If you get tired, take a break - but be sure you try again very soon.
