ارزیابی
Assessment is an important first step in providing hearing aids. Through an assessment you will gather information about the person’s hearing and grade of hearing loss.
Information from the assessment will help you and the person to plan:
- اگر ممکن است از سمعک بهره‌مند شوند:
- چه نوع سمعکی ممکن است مناسب باشد؟
- چه چیزی را آموزش دهیم

If the person already has hearing aids and is returning to the service, check whether the hearing aids are meeting their needs. The assessment will help to make decisions about adjusting, repairing or replacing their hearing aids.
