How many hours a hearing aid should be worn ?

Ideally the hearing aids should be worn all through waking hours except when having a bath. If you want to get the most benefit from the aids you will wear them as much as you can within the limits of comfort and convenience.

In order to get optimum benefits the wearer must be exposed to all types of environmental sounds. Your safety may depend upon your ability to hear twenty-four hours a day. If hearing aids help, use them as much as you see fit.

Full-time hearing aid use should not be considered a bad sign.
