Life just got easier for those who wear hearing aids!
A number of manufacturers offer a range of accessories to boost hearing aid performance (where required) to assist watching TV, talking on the phone (land line and mobile) and listening to music etc.
The current options for phone connectivity for hearing aids include:
- Direct to phone connection - using the styled for iPhone hearing aids for cell phones available through Starkey, GN ReSound and Oticon. Or direct land line connection by a remote, available from Oticon, Bernafon & Sonic.
- Direct management of the hearing aid function by phone - currently available for both iPhone and android - this allows you to use your phone as a remote control.
Options are available in a number of levels of hearing aid technology. This means you may not need the most expensive hearing aid option to access phone connections.
For further information and to discuss what is best for you, contact the friendly team at Audiology Associates.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Product recalls
I am appalled at the number of product recalls - salmon to snack balls to a huge range of toys. Not good enough manufacturers! Surely products are health and safety checked.
