Find out all you need to know about NHS hearing care below. We offer a full clinical assessment, and fully NHS funded fitting of hearing aids, as well as aftercare. You can also find out if you are eligible for NHS hearing aids.
We want to ensure that you never miss an essential conversation with a colleague or a memorable moment with your family. We are here to help you overcome all hearing challenges. If you have any concerns about your hearing, you are welcome to call into any of our NHS accredited branches, and the team there will be happy to advise you on what to do next.
Depending on the area you live, you may be able to book an appointment for a hearing test directly with us. You may also visit your GP who will assess your needs and refer you for an NHS hearing test appointment if they feel you would benefit from a hearing aid.
Once you have booked an appointment with us, we will provide you with a comprehensive hearing assessment, which will indicate whether you would benefit from hearing aids.
Our expert audiologist carries out the hearing assessment, which will take about 1 hour and will help to determine the degree of your hearing loss. If you do require hearing aids, we aim to fit the majority of our patients on the same day as their assessment appointment, so most people can start benefiting from clearer hearing straight away.
In addition to the full hearing assessment and fitting of hearing aids, our NHS Adult Hearing Service also includes comprehensive aftercare.
Our staff and Hearing Aid Audiologists will be on hand to support you with ongoing aftercare while you adjust and learn how to use your hearing aids. We will also provide you with a regular supply of hearing aid batteries.
With care and good daily cleaning, you shouldn’t have any problems with your hearing aids. However, if you need any help, please do not hesitate to contact us.
