What the study is about

This project will address quality of care issues associated with hearing loss in adults who have mild-to-moderate hearing loss and who have no access to hearing healthcare. Through the use of three different interventions involving over-the-counter hearing aids, it will lead to options that will increase access and affordability of hearing healthcare for adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss.

Being studied: Hearing Evaluation; Over-the-Counter Hearing Aid (OTC HA) Fitting and Orientation; Four Weeks of Aural Rehabilitation; Provision of Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids

Conditions: Hearing Loss
