Here’s something that brings a whole new meaning to the phrase, can you hear me now. No – we’re not talking cell phones, we’re talking about hearing loss. It’s a reality for many people. Hearing aids are the most common tool used to help restore hearing and the advances in technology are amazing. But the problem may be with how you use your hearing aid, or should I say, use it properly. You should become skilled at using your hearing aid. Learn how to use it and how to clean it. Practice inserting and removing it. And don’t be afraid to ask your audiologist for help.
If you’ve got sore joints and muscles, welcome to growing old. But if you’ve seen a doctor about your pain, you may want to mark this on your calendar. St. John’s will be hosting a health talk on joint replacements by Dr. Black tomorrow, January 22nd. For more information, call St. John’s Referral One at 625-2000 or log onto stj.com.
