Are you experiencing hearing problems?
Hearing loss is not limited to old age — it can happen to anyone. It is also common in children and young professionals, especially those exposed to loud noises. When you experience hearing troubles, it greatly affects your lifestyle and how you interact with the people around you.
If you are having a hard time hearing, do not delay treatment. Start your recovery journey with FREE hearing checks from Audiology Associates.
How to Detect Possible Hearing Loss
Hearing loss is a gradual process; most people do not notice their condition for years until it suddenly occurs. You might have experienced some warning signs: friends telling you to turn down the volume of your stereo or you frequently asking people to repeat what they said.
Gradual hearing loss approximately takes seven years before the patient realises the condition. Most individuals realise their troubles a moment too late, which results in expensive treatments. Love your hearing by addressing the issue now. Make an appointment with us for one of Auckland’s trusted hearing tests.
Starting the Journey with a Hearing Test
Your journey to better hearing starts with a simple diagnostic hearing test. This test determines your hearing levels, giving you an idea of your current condition. It also reflects the hearing capacity of both ear and which sounds you can hear without difficulty. Your first hearing test is an important baseline—this helps your audiologist plot your treatment plan.
If the results of your hearing test suggest the need for hearing devices, our team will make the right recommendations for you.

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
