Have you noticed any changes in your hearing abilities?
The significance of our hearing abilities is often overlooked, realizing its true worth only when it starts deteriorating. Challenges posed by hearing loss are not confined to only hearing complications but also affect various other aspects of day-to-day life such as social interactions, professional life, recreational activities, and overall health. It becomes increasingly hard to understand what people are saying, particularly in noise-intense situations like dining out, leading to frustrating and confusing conversations.
Neglecting to treat hearing loss can result in social withdrawal, have negative impacts on your professional or academic life, and adversely affect your emotional health. Remember, you no longer need to battle this issue silently.
Why Hearing Aids?
Hearing aids significantly improve the quality of life by enhancing the ability to communicate effectively, reducing the strain of excessive listening effort, and helping to detect important environmental sounds.
Enjoy Better Communication
Through the enhancement and precision of auditory signals, hearing aids assist individuals with diminished hearing in attaining a clearer understanding of verbal communications and dialogues, including in tougher acoustic situations. This can result in bettered exchanges with family, friends, and colleagues, encouraging the development of deeper connections and lowering the hindrances to effective communication.
Get A Better Quality of Life
Hearing aids can provide a significant boost to life’s quality. By reestablishing the ability to perceive an array of sounds, from the symphonies of music, the calm of nature, to the routine signals of our environment, they augment our sensory perception. Such improvement can inspire a heightened involvement in recreational pursuits, social interactions, and a more profound, intimate bond with the world in general.
Enhance Safety and Awareness
Hearing aids play a crucial role for those suffering from hearing impairment. They enhance the clarity of crucial sounds in their environment like the ringing of alarms, the wailing of sirens, or the humming of upcoming vehicles, thereby boosting their auditory perception. This integrating technology fosters a heightened feeling of personal protection and instills confidence in them and a peace of mind for their family.

Your Hearing Aids Questions Answered
How do I find hearing aids that are right for me?
The process of selecting the most suitable hearing aids is highly personalised. Numerous considerations are involved, like how pleasing and comfortable the aids feel, the standard of sound produced, how user-friendly they are, and how competently they boost hearing in situations with substantial ambient noise. Another crucial thing to bear in mind is your available funds and whether you qualify for any assistance through Australia’s Government Hearing Services Program, which is subject to particular regulations.
Who can hearing aids benefit?
People of every age dealing with hearing difficulties can benefit from hearing devices. Whether the hearing impairment is minor or major, the primary objectives of these aids are to enhance communication abilities, improve overall life satisfaction, and stimulate more active engagement with their environment.
Are hearing aids available on Medicare in Australia?
Despite hearing aids not being part of the Medicare coverage, a select group of individuals may receive these devices through the Hearing Services Program (HSP) facilitated by the Australian Government.
Who is eligible for subsidised hearing aids?
Thanks to the Commonwealth Hearing Services Program (HSP), eligible pensioners and clients of the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) have the chance to benefit from complimentary or reduced-cost hearing aids and services. Providers accredited under the HSP have demonstrated excellence and consistency through a stringent and ongoing accreditation process. This ensures clients receive top-notch care.
Plus, if you’re an Aussie citizen or permanent resident aged 26 and above with a Pensioner Concession Card, Gold Repatriation Health Card, or receive Centrelink’s Sickness Allowance, you may qualify for a Hearing Services voucher.
What brand of hearing aids do you stock?
Choose from our selection of hearing aids from premiere manufacturers such as Oticon, Phonak, Unitron, Starkey, Widex, Signia, Resound, and Bernafon.
Do I need hearing aids? Do I need one or two?
Determining whether you need hearing aids is best assessed through a comprehensive hearing evaluation conducted by a qualified audiologist such as our team at MAC. We will assess your hearing abilities, discuss your hearing concerns, and consider your lifestyle and communication needs. Based on the evaluation results, your audiologist will recommend whether hearing aids may be helpful in improving your hearing and quality of life.
The need for one or two hearing aids depends on several factors, including the degree and configuration of your hearing loss. In most cases, if you have hearing loss in both ears, wearing two hearing aids is recommended for optimal hearing benefits. Two hearing aids aim to provide improved sound localisation, better speech understanding in noisy environments, and a more balanced listening experience. However, the final decision should be made in consultation with an audiologist, such as our team at MAC. We can assess your specific hearing needs and guide you on the most suitable option for your situation.
Do you offer hearing aids for NDIS participants?
Indeed! We have the capacity to collaborate with patients who are on an NDIS plan. For more information regarding NDIS hearing aids, feel free to reach out to us.
