Hearing aids-what you don't know (new TEDx)

What you don't know about hearing aids, by Dr. Juliëtte Sterkens

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vf1q_HgLpw

For most of us, it is not a matter of if but when we will lose some of our hearing. Yet, we do not give hearing loss or hearing aids much thought until it happens to us or someone we live or work with. It is then that we find out that hearing aids are incapable of restoring hearing to normal, especially in acoustically challenging situations. The good news is that modern technology continues to bring us new, sometimes hidden, and often unknown features that can help those with hearing loss overcome more of their hearing challenges.

The TEDx talk ties in nicely with Drs. Lin and Reed's excellent book "AARP, Hearing Loss for Dummies"
