Macroaudiology stresses the importance of understanding the factors which give rise to the hearing difficulties. These include understanding the communication process and the importance of the quality of the listening environment

In order to get the best outcome, a thorough assessment and analysis of your auditory function is required. Apart from a much more thorough assessment of your auditory function, this will include  an assessment of your hearing needs, your feelings about these needs, and what you would like to do about them.Once these have been completed, a management plan can be created to help you to define and meet your goals, and to maintain them as well as possible.Most hearing problems are long-term, requiring long-term management. The greater your understanding of the process, the better you will be able to minimise the impact of the problem on your life, and of those with whom you frequently communicate.
