A member asked:

What's a good way to get my 58 year young mate to try hearing aids?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tell about trial: In the U.S. Hearing aids have a trial period. Advise your mate about this, have him/her see the relative inconspicuousness of the hearing aids and realize how much it could help him/her.
