Get the most from your hearing aids

This is a helpful guide developed to support people to use their hearing aids.

There are six steps that aim to boost knowledge and skills, opportunities, and motivation for successful hearing aid use.

You can return to the guide whenever you need to. It’s also useful to share this with people you regularly talk to, so they can understand more about hearing loss, hearing aids, and communication.

How the guide was developed

The guide is a joint effort created by researchers, clinicians and people who have hearing aids. It was developed by researchers at The University of Nottingham and Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, along with support from The National Institute for Health and Care Research and RNID.

The guide combines research evidence, scientific theory, and the real-life experiences of many hearing aid users, to help overcome common challenges.

The guide is here to help guide you in managing your hearing loss with hearing aids, step by step.
