Senior Hearing Loss – Good Health in Atlanta Georgia

Can You Hear Me Now?

Hearing Loss in Seniors is a problem for many!

The most common response seniors in Atlanta get from spouses, family, and friends to questions a senior asks is, “What?”  A few think that this is a case of selective hearing, in which longtime married couples have trained themselves never to hear anything the other is saying. But it is likely that it’s hearing loss. There’s a lesson in that for seniors.

33% of adults in Atlanta have at least some degree of hearing loss by age 60. It affects more than 28 million people in the United States. It can have an enormous impact on an individual’s health and well-being by making it difficult to locate the origin of a sound, understand speech in a noisy atmosphere or contribute to a conversation. This can contribute to confusion, frustration, tension, social isolation, stress and depression.
