5. Attend your
hearing test
Your free Amplifon hearing test includes a detailed hearing
history, lifestyle questionnaire, ear examination and hearing test
with a qualified hearing aid audiologist. We'll ask you questions
about when and where you have difficulty hearing, and what hobbies
and interests you have. This helps us to recommend hearing aids
that are right for the things you do and the places you are in.
If we find you have no hearing loss, we'll invite you to come
back in about two years time for another test.

6. Discuss your
options
We offer a wide range of hearing aids using the latest
technology to suit your hearing requirements, your lifestyle and
your budget. Our hearing aid audiologists will be happy to
advise you on the hearing aids that would be most suitable for
you.

7. Experience the
difference a hearing aid can make
If your hearing test has shown you have a hearing loss, our
hearing aid audiologist will offer you sample hearing aids to
try on. This will give you some idea of how much hearing aids could
help you and how it feels to wear them. But depending on the type
of hearing aid your hearing aid audiologist
recommends, the demonstration may only give you a general idea of
how much hearing aids could help - for example, many hearing aids
are made individually so they would improve your hearing much more
than you could experience with a sample aid during your hearing
consultation.
8. Order your hearing
aids
We will order the hearing aids you have chosen based
on our recommendation and make an appointment for a fitting.
If you are ordering an In-the-ear (ITE) model, a mould will be
taken of your ear. This only takes a few minutes and is not
uncomfortable.
9. Come back for
fitting
Your new hearing aids should be ready within fourteen days
depending on your requirements. When you come back your
hearing aid audiologist will fit your hearing aids for you and show
you how to put them in your ears yourself.
Your hearing aid audiologist will arrange a programme of free
Lifetime Aftercare to make sure you are getting the maximum
benefit from them and they continue to work at maximum efficiency.
The hearing aid audiologist will also advise you on how to use your
hearing aids and how to take daily care of them to
maintain their performance and what to do when batteries need
replacing.
