Today was the end of an era. It was a bittersweet moment when our team said goodbye to our longtime Accounting Professional, Dick Mackin. His accounting wizardry, dry humor, clever comebacks, and exquisite taste for the finer things in life will be missed. We wish Dick a very Happy Retirement (although our ledger shows he was fully depreciated years ago)! 😉

👂❤️👂 This month is all about great partnerships, and your ears are one of the BEST.
If you have hearing loss in both ears, two hearing aids are typically better than one.

Think “one good ear is good enough?” Discover the power of two.
Working together, your ears can help you hear speech clearer, feel less listening fatigue, and stay more connected to the people and things you love.

Questions? We’re here to help.

When your auditory system struggles to distinguish speech from background noise, your brain works overtime, draining your energy, which can lead to listening fatigue.

Hearing health professionals use comprehensive hearing tests to assess not just whether you hear sounds, but how well your brain interprets them.

Understanding this distinction empowers you to take action earlier rather than later.

👂 Think you’re not a candidate for hearing aids?
☝️ You might be surprised!

Here are some common misconceptions about hearing aids and who ACTUALLY needs them.

1️⃣ They’re only for people with SEVERE hearing loss 🤯
The majority of hearing aid users actually have mild to moderate loss.

2️⃣ They make you look older 😤
Untreated hearing loss can have a much more noticeable impact on others' impressions and your social presence than discreet hearing technology ever could.

3️⃣ They’re Costly 🤨
Prices vary, but technology is available across a range of budgets and features.
