Wearing masks with over the ear hearing side

Posted by akalsas @akalsas, Nov 14, 2020

“I have stopped wearing my aids when masks required because when talking ,etc my aids have been almost lost because the movement of mask makes for a dangerous situation. Having had the scare of the aids being dangling from behind the ear frequently. What do others do?

Hello Eloise,

I am not sure whether this is the correct place to send you my address? By looking at your article I have not been able to figure how to send it to you!

Best Regards,

Barbara

@nurseheadakes Will send Mon. (Sorry I was inundated with "To Do/s). When I brought your HLAA article to the attention of a HLAA friend, she was interested in your masks, but only if she could see a photo of one. Would that be possible? Till tomorrow.

These masks have the plastic window in the front, the nose guard in the top portion and wrap the chin because they fold outward. there are two styles of elastic straps. One that goes over the ears for the caregivers and one for those who are hard of hearing with the elastic going over the head.

Please. I've somehow made a mistake. I get "hundreds" of Mayo Clinic notices every day. I have to unfollow with everything I am so overwhelmed.
