Why Use a Carrying Case at the Beach?

Do you have your summer vacation planned?

If you’re a Michigander, it likely involves a beach!

Here are some ways to keep your hearing aids safe while at the beach:

Use a carrying case – To keep your hearing aids 100% safe, put them in a waterproof carrying case before you get to the beach. If you take them out later, sand from your hands can get inside the hearing aids, damaging them. Sand can also get into hearing aids if you are buried in sand or are laying on the sand while sunbathing. 

A carrying case also helps protect your hearing aids from water. Even though some hearing aids are waterproof, that doesn’t mean they’re safe to submerge! Take out your hearing aids before swimming. If they get wet, remove the battery and treat them like other electronics by putting them in dry rice.

How to Keep Your Hearing Aids Safe at the Beach

Are you beating the heat by taking trips to the beach?

With gorgeous beaches along the Great Lakes and a lake every six miles, what Michigander could resist? Everyone deserves to enjoy the water and beach, but hearing aid users must be a little more careful.   

Here are some ways to keep your hearing aids safe while at the beach:

Don’t go alone – If you choose to take out your hearing aids, bring someone you trust that can hear sirens, emergency signals, and can generally make sure you’re safe.

Apply sunscreen with hearing aids out – Sunscreen contains oils that can damage hearing aids, so apply your rub-on or spray-on sunscreen with your hearing aids out. Once your hands are completely dry, you can touch your hearing aids again.
