They are required to have completed high school or received an equivalent degree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some hearing instrument specialists choose to become board certified\nhearing instrument specialists. This requires them to pass a national exam given\nby the National Hearing Instrument Society. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hearing aid dispensers work with patients of all ages,\nincluding children and adults. They work in diverse settings like hospitals,\nschools, clinics, universities and private practices; most can be found in an\noffice that provides hearing aid services to those with sensorineural hearing\nloss, also known as nerve deafness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hearing aid dispensers are trained to interpret hearing\nassessments and use that information to select the best hearing aid possible\nfor their patients. After trying on and testing out a number of options, the hearing\naid model is selected and the hearing instrument specialist can get to work\nfitting and programing the device to match the individual\u2019s exact degree of\nhearing loss. <\/p>\n\n\n<p>Call <span class=\"company-name \">Sierra Hearing Center<\/span> at <a href=\"tel:+17753578685\" class=\"phone \"> <span class=\"phNum\">(775) 357-8685<\/span><\/a> for more information or to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered what exactly a hearing aid dispenser does, besides review your hearing tests?
