Have you noticed a change in your hearing?
We often take our hearing for granted, only realising its true value when it declines. Hearing loss presents challenges that affect various aspects of life, including communication, social interactions, work, hobbies, and overall well-being. Understanding speech, especially in noisy environments like dining out with loved ones, may become increasingly difficult, causing strained conversations, misunderstandings, and frustration.
Untreated hearing loss can lead to social isolation, impact your work or education, and negatively affect your emotional well-being. However, you don’t have to suffer in silence anymore.
Why Hearing Aids?
Quality of life can be improved with the use of hearing aids, facilitating improved communication, alleviating the demand of intensive auditory concentration and contributing to the recognition of significant sounds in the environment.
Enhance Communication
Hearing aids serve as a crucial tool for increasing and refining auditory signals, thereby benefiting those suffering from hearing impairments by easing their comprehension of spoken words and conversations, even in noise-loaded settings. This can lead to enhanced communication with loved ones, peers, and work associates, helping to build more robust bonds and diminish obstacles to communication.
Get A Better Quality of Life
The use of hearing aids can have a substantial positive impact on an individual’s overall lifestyle. They have the ability to open up a plethora of sounds, such as the melodies of music, the whispers of nature, and the subtle signals in our daily environment, contributing to a richer sensory experience. As a result, they can create opportunities for more active involvement in recreational activities, social engagement and a heightened connection with the world around us.
Improve Safety and Awareness
For those grappling with hearing challenges, hearing aids are a great asset. They magnify important sounds that may otherwise be missed—like alarms, sirens, and vehicles nearing—which noticeably improves auditory sensitivity. Through creating a robust sense of personal safety, these devices aid in providing the wearer and their dear ones with feelings of security and ease.

Your Hearing Aids Questions Answered
How do I find hearing aids that are right for me?
Finding the right hearing aids for you is a personal journey. Several factors will come into play, such as the aesthetics and comfort of the hearing aids, sound quality, user-friendliness, and their effectiveness in enhancing hearing in noisy environments. It’s also important to consider your budget and eligibility, including any potential benefits from the Australian Government Hearing Services Program (subject to certain conditions).
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?
While hearing aids are not covered by Medicare, the Australian Government Hearing Services Program (HSP) may provide them for certain people.
Who is eligible for subsidised hearing aids?
Qualified pensioners and DVA clients have the opportunity to access free or subsidised hearing services, which include hearing aids. These services are made possible through the Commonwealth Hearing Services Program (HSP). Accredited providers under the HSP undergo a rigorous process to attain and maintain their government accreditation, ensuring high-quality care for eligible individuals.
Additionally, you may be eligible for a Hearing Services voucher if you are an Australian citizen or permanent resident who is over 26 years old and holds a Pensioner Concession Card, a Gold Repatriation Health Card, or receive Sickness Allowance from Centrelink.
What brand of hearing aids do you stock?
We offer a wide range of hearing aids from renowned brands, including Oticon, Phonak, Unitron, Starkey, Widex, Signia, Resound, and Bernafon.
Do I need hearing aids? Do I need one or two?
The verification of whether you necessitate hearing aids can best be confirmed through a thorough hearing check-up conducted by a competent audiologist, such as our trained team at MAC. We will probe into your hearing capacity, deliberate on your hearing challenges, and contemplate your lifestyle and communicative requisites. After analysing the evaluation outcomes, your audiologist will propose if hearing aids could be effective in augmenting your hearing experience and life quality.
The demand for one or two hearing aids rests on several influences, including your hearing loss scale and structure. Generally, if you suffer hearing impairment in both ears, it’s advisable to use two hearing aids for the finest auditory benefits. A pair of hearing aids intend to deliver superior sound identification, improved comprehension of speech amidst loud environments, and a more balanced auditive experience. Nonetheless, the final call should be taken in collaboration with an audiologist, like our seasoned team at MAC. We can evaluate your specific hearing requirements and steer you towards the most beneficial option for your condition.
Do you offer hearing aids for NDIS participants?
Yes! Some of our patients have an NDIS plan which we can work with. Learn more about NDIS hearing aids or contact us.
