Do you have difficulty understanding speech? Need to increase volume of electronics? Experience a “ringing” or “buzzing” in your ears? If so, Community Healthcare System’s Audiology Services is here to help at six locations throughout Northwest Indiana, including its newest site in Hobart.
“It is common to develop hearing loss as we age,” said Tricia O’Halloran, MA, CCC-A, F-AAA, a licensed audiologist and director of Audiology Services for Community Healthcare System. “The key is to get an evaluation to determine type and degree of the loss in order to provide best recommendations for treatment options.”
The Audiology team at Community Healthcare System offers advanced treatments and state-of-the-art hearing aid technology.
“Modern technology goes beyond amplification to make speech and sounds audible for patients,” O’Halloran said. “Hearing aids change automatically with each environment. This allows you to engage effortlessly in conversation even in the most difficult listening situations.”
