Manila Hearing Aid’s 47-year legacy: Elevating the hearing care experience

Metro Manila (CNN Philippines) — Manila Hearing Aid (MHA) celebrates 47 years of providing heartfelt hearing care this year — a year filled with new feats from introducing advanced hearing aid technologies to the Philippines to partnering with organizations who live by their promises.

This year’s celebration highlights the significance of every step in a patient’s hearing care journey. When seeking the right hearing care solution, people tend to focus on the end goal, finding the suitable hearing aid for them. However, MHA’s promise offers beyond that.

Finding the right hearing aid

Every journey has phases and steps, no matter how simple, to guarantee reaching the end goal. The same goes for hearing care. Seeking the right hearing care solution like incorporating hearing aids to manage hearing loss comes with crucial parts that the user must undergo. One of them is the hearing care consultation.

After studying the patient’s hearing test results, the next step is a one-on-one consultation between the hearing care specialist and the patient. It is also common for a family member to join to fully learn how hearing aids benefit the patient and the people around them.

In this practice, MHA nurtures strong connections with patients as human touch and its professional and technical expertise in hearing aid technology come into fore. Hearing care specialists create a safe space for the user to comfortably share stories about their daily routines, lifestyle, challenges, goals, and even preferences.

These diverse stories guide hearing care specialists to evaluate and determine the hearing aid that can best serve the needs of the user for them to experience its optimal benefits.

Hearing wellness for all

Good hearing health benefits the overall well-being — physically, mentally, and socially — and these benefits are often overlooked until a certain condition related to this body function, like hearing loss surfaces.

Communication is essential for humans as it gathers them and helps build close relationships with each other. This is one of the main factors why patients diagnosed with hearing loss seek professional help.

When hearing is impeded, it has a gradual yet direct impact on your ability to interact and engage. If ignored or not managed, the condition may lead to challenges like strained relationships with loved ones, losing the sense of independence and security. For some, this may even leave long-term effects to the brain.

These challenges may slow you down at a certain point of your life. But a positive outlook towards managing hearing loss can help you move forward and take the first step to finding the suitable hearing care solution.

This is also why doctors, audiologists, and hearing care specialists highly encourage the practice of incorporating hearing wellness in our daily lives. This includes a comprehensive scope that envelopes detection, prevention, management, and post-care in one. In sum, these can benefit all age groups as hearing wellness and care practices are designed for all.

MHA officially opened its newly relocated clinic from Ali Mall, Cubao to a bigger, more accessible area at the new Gateway Mall extension, just a short drive from the former clinic. It is specifically located at Level 2, Gateway Mall 2, Araneta City.
