Helen Kellar said "When we lose our sight, we lose touch with things. When we lose our hearing, we lose touch with people."
The members of our college are committed to finding better hearing solutions for the hard of hearing in Alberta. Hearing loss affects nearly every age group and nearly every aspect of the society in which we live. It is also the most preventable disability, with 33% of hearing loss caused by noise.
The CHAPA website answers frequently asked questions about hearing and hearing loss, provides links to different websites where you can take self tests and learn more about how the ear works. Also you will find information of different styles and types of hearing devices and a list of practitioners in your area.
Thank you for allowing CHAPA to help you make a more informed decision on your hearing.
