Jennifer: Can using a behind the ear hearing aid to assist someone "hear somewhat better" can hardly qualify as a "comfortable physically" problem-correct? They are not exactly "weighty"-mine wasn't! I understand the incidence of Hearing loss increases with age-thus shouldn't be a surprise that "old people"are affected.  Denial is "one way to deal with it"..Effective?

The assumption should be does this person need/require such as a device based on their audiogram? Why would the "old person" seek this out-- without thinking gee-am I missing something "hearing wise"? "Medicalized" perspective- really? Note: Jillio you probably would suggest a chat instead with psychologist instead for a "psychologize"  perspective.
