Hospital hearing aid battery policy

I keep a card with 8 batteries (or whatever's left of the 8) in my wallet. You never know when you'll be away from home and your batteries will decide to quit. I buy batteries at Costco, where six cards of 8 each (48 total) cost $8.99, a HUGE saving from drugstore cost.

After this incident I put a pack of batteries in my truck so that if I'm ever away from home when I need to go to an emergency room, I might be able to replace a battery that dies. But the truck gets hot inside when it's parked in the sun, so I suspect that can cause the batteries to expire sooner than if they were stored at "room temperature" or in a refrigerator.
