Hearing instrument expectations
A hearing instrument will not restore normal hearing and will not prevent or improve a hearing impairment re-
sulting from organic conditions. Consistent use of the hearing instrument is recommended. In most cases,
infrequent use does not permit you to attain full benefit from it.
The use of a hearing instrument is only part of hearing rehabilitation and may need to be supplemented by
auditory training and instructions in lip-reading.
