Cancer Treatment Loaners

Connection During Struggle

We believe hearing gives hope, which is especially important in times of trouble.

Hope in Troubled Times

During extreme medical events, hearing loss is common.

In difficult seasons, like cancer treatment and hospice, it’s important to feel more connected to loved ones. Unfortunately this is often made difficult due to hearing loss. GiveHear partners with Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana, Heartland Hospice, and Visiting Nurse to provide loaner hearing aids to patients in their care.

The loaned hearing aids foster improved communication with family, caregivers, and community.

Program Benefits

  • Accessories (batteries, wax domes, etc.) charged to patient at full cost.

Patient Responsibility

  • Hearing Test completed prior to hearing aid fitting
  • Hearing aid for one or two ears (depending on need)
  • Hearing aid style chosen by our audiologist from the donated stock

Give Hear is a non-profit audiology clinic that provides hearing healthcare in the fitting and maintaining of hearing aids.

Our community donation program provides our clinics with good quality hearing aids to be used in our loaner program. At such a time as the patient no longer needs the loaner hearing aid(s), we ask that the loaner aids are returned to the loaner hearing bank.

This program depends on donated hearing aids. If you or someone you know has gently used hearing aids, please get in touch to donate your hearing aids
