Default Hearing Loss Support Group

There is a support group in the Villages for people with hearing loss. It meets monthly at the Eisenhower Rec Center at 9:30 the fourth Wednesday of every month. The next meeting is May 25th. The program will feature a discussion of a new cochlear implant that’s paired with bone conduction from Cochlear America. There will be time for a general Q and A session on hearing aids and other audiology topics. All are welcome!

They have been adjusted 3 or 4 times with very little change. I generally can’t tell if they are in or not. What is your experience? Thanks
