Picture it: amazing your coworkers with quick replies and commentary in meetings or during social events, hearing instructions correctly on the first listen, staying safe and aware during the morning and evening commutes… it’s important to look after your hearing to ensure that neither your working life nor your home life struggle.

If you’re a working professional, chances are that you’re looking for ways to help enhance your working life with the help of your assistive hearing devices. Hearing better can (and will!) improve your work, especially for those of us who work in office spaces with other people where we rely on our hearing to get the job done right.

We’ve heard success stories from many of our patients about how their devices have changed the game when it comes to their work. Many working individuals, no matter their age, see the multitude of benefits that come with enhancing their hearing with advanced hearing aid technology.

Of course, none of them were jumping initially to get their first pair of hearing aids; we’re well aware that hearing aids are often associated with negative stigmas to do with getting older, and the caricatured image of a bulky, off-white or off-pink hearing aid certainly isn’t a pretty one!

However, those negative stigmas are changing. Nowadays, hearing aids are much smaller, more powerful, and far more discreet – no more buzzing behind your ear. Unless someone knows you’re wearing one, some models of hearing aids are basically invisible.

Keeping a close eye on your hearing health can help you in more ways than one, even if your hearing isn’t to the point where you need hearing aids just yet. Even just one hearing assessment lets you understand your current range of hearing and see what you need to get that next promotion.

How Can Hearing Care Help Me Succeed at My Job?

When you think about it, your hearing helps you do a lot more than you think. Listening to your family at the dinner table, hearing the doorbell, jumping when a car horn goes off, paying attention in work meetings…

Your ears do a lot more for you than you realize. It’s crucial to look after your hearing, especially for those of us going to and from the office. Hearing the morning traffic isn’t exactly a fun luxury to have, but it’s needed to keep you safe as you go to work.

At the office, your hearing aids can help you with a boost to your productivity; you won’t need to ask for repetition on a task’s instructions when you can hear your boss loud and clear. Get that work done and you’ll be another step closer to Friday!

Work socials are an important part of keeping up with your coworkers and establishing that rapport between all of you, but sitting in a loud bar or restaurant can be overwhelming and nerve-wracking with hearing loss. With the help of your hearing aids, you’ll be able to adjust your hearing so you can focus on the conversation in front of you, staying in the loop with your coworkers.

Hearing care and hearing aids provide a huge amount of help for people struggling with hearing loss challenges at work and falling behind as a result. If you’d rather be the coworker getting tasks done on time, staying sharp in meetings, and delaying your retirement, investing in professional hearing care could be the right option for you.

Annette Cross, BC-HIS CEO and President of Provincial Hearing

Annette grew up in a farming family and was familiar with hearing loss because it was in her family. Finding hearing care very interesting, and after gaining more than 10 years of management experience, she started working in the industry in 1992 as a secretary. Her passion and dedication to help enhance lives through better hearing has only grown more since those days. In 1997, Annette had the opportunity to purchase Provincial Hearing from owner Don Allen. Since then, she has grown the business to three locations — Bridgewater, Truro, and Kentville. Provincial Hearing is proud to be one of the oldest locally/family-owned clinics in Nova Scotia, and Annette contributes the clinics’ success to her team’s provision of honest, personalized patient care and their desire to always stay on top of the latest advancements in the hearing industry.
