Your Hearing Checklist

Below is a 'checklist' of questions to ask yourself if you suspect there is a hearing loss. If you answer 'yes' to at least two of the questions, you may want to consider visiting an audiologist (OR have one visit you!) to have your hearing thoroughly evaluated:

  1. Are you having trouble hearing the television set?
  2. Are you having difficulty hearing on the telephone?
  3. Are you having difficulty hearing the doorbell, telephone, clock or other devices?
  4. Do you feel that people 'mumble' and don't speak clearly?
  5. Do you frequently ask other people to repeat themselves?
  6. Do you feel like your hearing is 'cloudy' or 'not clear'?
  7. Do other people ask you if you have problems hearing?
  8. Do you hear people, but just don't quite make out what they are saying?
  9. Do you find yourself avoiding situations because you are not able to hear other people properly?
  10. Do you find that your hearing is not what is used to be?
