Adapting to your hearing aids
Congratulations for taking the first steps toward restoring your
communication skills with the purchase of state-of-the-art hear-
ing aids from Widex .
Because many of the sounds you may now hear have not been
fully audible without hearing aids, we urge you to take a few min-
utes to perform the following simple activities in the order listed .
Do these first in quiet settings, then try them in noisier surround-
ings .
Activity 1: First, listen to a friend or relative speak to you with your
eyes closed and your hearing aids off . Now, put your hearing aids
on and continue to listen . Notice the difference? The purpose of
this activity is not to hear every word, but just to recognize the
difference in amplified speech from a familiar source .
