Is your parent's TV always too loud? Do they say "what?" more than they used to? Hearing loss in elderly parents is one of those things everyone notices and nobody wants to talk about, until it can't be ignored anymore. In this episode I get personal about my own two ear surgeries and what it finally took to get my own mom tested.
So what's the real difference between an amplifier and a hearing aid, and which one should you actually start with? I break down the options, the costs, and the one simple move that can get even the most resistant parent to finally agree to see a doctor.
Hearing loss doesn't just stay quiet, it can speed up cognitive decline if it's left untreated. If you've been wondering how to get your parent to even try a hearing aid, this episode gives you the encouragement and the game plan to keep going. You're not doing this alone.
Feeling overwhelmed by what's next for your parent?
Let's talk it through. My Parent Planning Call is a 60-minute 1:1 conversation to help you get clarity and real next steps, no judgment, no cookie-cutter advice.
