In-Home Visits
Play it Again Hearing
Why hearing assessments matter
For many people, mobility limitations, transportation challenges, or health concerns make visiting a clinic difficult. In-home hearing services remove barriers, delivering the same high-standard assessments, fittings, and maintenance in the comfort and convenience of your home. Play it Again Hearing provides professional in-home hearing assessments, fittings, and follow-up care across
Eugene, Roseburg and the surrounding communities so everyone has access to quality hearing solutions.
What we deliver with in-home visits
Full hearing assessments
Portable, calibrated equipment allows us to perform comprehensive testing at home.
Hearing aid selection and demonstration
We bring demo units and explain device features and benefits in person.
Professional fittings
We program, fit, and verify hearing aids using portable verification tools when appropriate.
Device servicing
Batteries, cleaning, wax removal, and minor adjustments and repairs are performed on-site when possible.
Counseling and training
Hands-on instruction for daily use, communication strategies, and home-specific listening adjustments (TV, phones, household noise).
Benefits of in-home service
Accessibility: Eliminates travel and transportation barriers for clients with limited mobility.
Comfort:
Testing and fittings occur in a familiar environment, which can improve comfort and the accuracy of subjective reporting.

We can assess how hearing aids interact with home-specific sound sources (TV, appliances, room acoustics) and tailor settings accordingly.

Appointments are private and scheduled to fit your routine.
Who should consider in-home visits
Individuals with mobility or transportation challenges.
People with chronic illness or temporary recovery needs.
Family caregivers seeking support for an older relative.
Those who prefer testing and fittings in their home environment.
What to expect during an in-home appointment

Comprehensive assessment: We perform a full hearing evaluation and discuss results.
Device selection and trial: We demonstrate recommended hearing aids and fit demo units if appropriate.

Follow-up plan: We schedule return visits or office follow-ups as needed.
Limitations and considerations
While many tests and verifications can be performed in the home, certain advanced diagnostic procedures may require an office visit.
Environmental noise in a home can affect certain tests; we plan visits at times that minimize background noise.
For custom earmolds or impressions, we can take impressions during in-home visits and coordinate lab work for device fabrication.
Safety and infection control
We follow strict safety and hygiene protocols during in-home visits. Equipment and devices are sanitized, and clinicians adhere to professional infection control procedures. We coordinate with caregivers or family members to ensure a safe, comfortable appointment.
Real-world examples of in-home benefits
An older adult with limited mobility received a full assessment, was fitted with Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids, and now participates more in family conversations and phone calls.
A client recovering from surgery was fitted at home with rechargeable units and trained on charging and cleaning without having to travel.
Families appreciate having hearing care delivered at home for convenience and continuity.
Technology and tools for in-home service
We bring portable audiometric equipment, demo hearing aids from multiple manufacturers, batteries and chargers, cleaning kits, and accessories. For verification, we use portable probe-microphone systems where necessary to ensure fittings meet amplification targets.
Follow-up care after in-home service
We schedule follow-up visits in-home or in-office to refine settings and provide additional training. We also offer phone support for troubleshooting and can assist with mail-in repairs when appropriate.
