Insufficient consumer awareness of state-of-the-art hearing instrument technology and a general tendency to deny the presence of a hearing problem led the International Hearing Society (IHS) to declare October 03-10, 2010 as Hearing Aid Awareness Week. The event has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Service’s National Health Information Center and is included in the 2010 National Health Observances Calendar. Started in 1995, Hearing Aid Awareness Week is celebrated throughout the country, in many ways.
