In this episode of The Psychoaudiology Podcast, audiologist and national hearing loop advocate Juliette Sterkens joins us to talk about one of the most overlooked aspects of hearing aid technology — what happens after you fit the hearing aids.
We explore:
Why hearing aids don’t restore normal hearing
The everyday challenges of hearing in noisy environments
How hearing loops dramatically improve clarity and comprehension for hearing aid users
The future potential of Auracast as a universal assistive listening solution
Why accessibility in public spaces is still falling short
The episode opens with a short sound demo so you can hear the difference a hearing loop makes — a powerful experience for both professionals and the general public.
Learn more about hearing loops and public hearing access with Juliette’s impactful TEDx talk
