Abstract

The current medical model utilizes verbal informational counseling when counseling new hearing aid users on their device. This counseling is extensive and often overwhelming, which can negatively impact the patient’s understanding of their hearing aid. The data from this Capstone shows that the use of instructional videos could be used to reinforce the verbal counseling, possibly increasing patient satisfaction and benefit.
