Navjeevan: Aural Rehabilitation – Empowering You to Hear and Communicate Effectively
At Navjeevan, we understand that hearing loss goes beyond simply not being able to hear sounds. It can impact your ability to understand speech, follow conversations, and participate actively in communication. Aural rehabilitation is a key component in addressing these challenges and helping you maximize the benefits of your hearing device.
What is Aural Rehabilitation?
Aural rehabilitation is a form of therapy that equips you with the skills and strategies you need to thrive in a world filled with sound. It goes beyond simply amplifying sound through hearing aids or cochlear implants. It focuses on:
Improving your listening skills: This involves techniques to help you focus on specific sounds, filter out background noise, and improve your ability to identify and understand speech, especially in challenging listening environments.
Communication strategies: Our therapists will teach you communication strategies to enhance your interactions with others. This might involve requesting clarification, asking for repetition, or utilizing assistive listening devices in specific situations.
Maximizing your hearing device: Aural rehabilitation helps you get the most out of your hearing aid or cochlear implant. We’ll train you on how to use different features effectively, adjust settings based on your environment, and troubleshoot any challenges you might encounter.
Who Can Benefit from Aural Rehabilitation?
Aural rehabilitation is beneficial for anyone experiencing hearing loss, regardless of the severity. It’s particularly helpful for individuals who:
