Winneshiek Medical Center Decorah Clinic Audiology is pleased to provide patients donated hearing aids who qualify through the clinic assistance program. “This has benefited patients who otherwise would be unable to get hearing aids,” shares Cynthia See, Au.D., Mayo Clinic Health System audiologist at WMC Decorah Clinic
The program allows anyone to donate any brand of used hearing aids that are in good condition to be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, and then reused for patients in need. “Patients appreciate the program because it truly changes their quality of life,” shares Dr. See.
If you’re interested in donating used hearing aids or want to support the program with a monetary donation contact Winneshiek Medical Center Foundation. You may request a tax-deductible donation receipt if you choose. “We’re pleased offer this program to the patients we serve,” says Holly Kanengeiter, WMC Foundation coordinator. “It’s another way we can address the health needs of our community and support those patients who are dealing with hearing loss.”
Winneshiek Medical Center Audiology specializes in evaluating and treating patients with hearing loss. In addition to fitting hearing aids, Dr. See can help with concerns about hearing, ringing of the ears, dizziness, ear fullness, and ear drainage.
