A hearing aid will not restore normal hearing and will not
prevent or improve a hearing impairment resulting from
organic conditions. Infrequent use of a hearing aid does not
permit a user to attain full benet from it. The use of a
hearing aid is only part of hearing habilitation and may
need to be supplemented by auditory training and
instruction in lipreading.
The hearing aid is suitable for the home healthcare
environment and due to their portability it may happen that
it is used in professional healthcare facility environment like
physician oces, dental oces etc.
