The American Academy of Audiology advises that lengthy or repeated exposure to noise above 85 decibels can damage hearing. To put that into perspective, an amplified music concert or headphones with the volume turned all the way up can be as high (or higher) as 120 decibels. Compare these with normal conversation that is around 60-65 decibels. Follow the acronym EARS during #ProtectYourHearingMonth.

When an individual’s hearing becomes impaired, basic communication can feel effortful and exhausting—resulting in withdrawal from social activities with friends, family events, and other activities. Often, individuals with hearing loss can become socially isolated due to the challenges of communicating effectively. Given that hearing aid use has been associated with a reduced likelihood of depressive symptoms, early recognition of hearing loss could lead to interventions resulting in improved quality of life. We're here to guide you! #AudiologyAwarenessMonth
