As we all know with the recent government announcement that wearing a face mask is now mandatory in indoor spaces, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
It has been well documented that people with hearing loss have found it to be increasingly challenging to communicate with others who are wearing masks, as they muffle sound and eliminate lip-reading cues.
This isn't the only challenge individuals with hearing loss face. The common style of over-the-ear face mask puts hearing aid wearers at risk of misplacing their behind-the-ear devices when they become entangled upon the removal of masks.
Below we have a list of some recommendations from one of the leading hearing aid manufacturer, Starkey, to help reduce your risk of losing your hearing aids.
