2018
FALL IS A TIME FOR LISTENING From the rustle of leaves on the ground to conversations with family and friends around the holiday table - fall is a time to enjoy the sounds of life and to make memories with those we love. Unfortunately hearing loss can put a damper on fall’s fun activities. According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), more than 37 million American adults report having hearing difficulty and hearing loss affects one in three adults over the age of 65. Common signs of hearing loss include: • Trouble understanding phone conversations • Difficulty hearing in crowded settings
• First, our seasonal “Hear for the Holidays” campaign is back! Starting November 1, we will be offering a 10 percent discount on all hearing aids. This will be a great time to utilize any remaining Health Savings Account funds toward starting a treatment plan that will make this holiday season one to remember. • Secondly, we want to thank all of our wonderful patients for spreading the word about the great hearing healthcare they’ve received at PEI. The next time you refer a friend or family member to us, we’d like to buy you a cup of coffee and a treat! Just give your friend one of our referral cards with your name written on the back, and when they come in for their appointment, both of you will receive a complimentary gift card!
• Trouble following a conversation when more than one person is speaking • Frequently thinking people are mumbling • Asking people to repeat themselves • Frequent complaints from others that the TV is too loud The good news? Addressing hearing loss through a treatment plan that can include hearing aids has been shown to reduce depression, increase participation in social activities and improve engagement with friends and family. For that reason, we’re excited to announce some initiatives this fall that focus on giving the gift of hearing to as many people as possible.
