PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA — Hearing care retailer HearUSA has revealed its plans to launch a series of innovative Hearing Centers of the Future throughout 2023, with the first center opening this month in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. These state-of-the-art centers are designed to offer clients a novel hearing care experience tailored to their specific needs and lifestyle, aligning with the brand’s commitment to “delivering the Sound of the New Age”.
The centers boast a contemporary and inviting design concept, incorporating open spaces, product displays, and cutting-edge in-center technology such as QR codes, iPads, and interactive displays.

Within this consumer-friendly atmosphere, licensed Hearing Care Professionals (HCPs) guide clients in exploring a range of prescription hearing aids from brands such as Widex and Signia, as well as Over the Counter (OTC) hearing aid solutions from Sony.
Clients can access valuable information to improve their hearing health, undergo complimentary hearing evaluations, test simulated hearing environments, and experience the latest hearing aid technology in the comfort of a state-of-the-art sound experience room.

James Gilchrist, President of HearUSA, acknowledged the rapid evolution of the healthcare industry, highlighting the disruptive impact of new service models and technological advancements that grant clients greater control over their care.
“The world of healthcare is rapidly changing,” said James Gilchrist, President of HearUSA. “New service models are disrupting the traditional ways we access care, and technology is giving clients more control. In this new landscape, HearUSA is setting a new standard in hearing care, in partnership with our HCPs, to create an entirely new way to learn about and access better hearing health. We believe this new standard will help prospective clients to understand hearing care in a new way, become engaged with a learning process that puts them at the center of the experience, and empower them to take the next step and schedule a hearing evaluation that could change their lives for the better.”

The Center of the Future also prioritizes programs aimed at enhancing the skills and knowledge of HCPs, positioning HearUSA as a crucial resource for both current and future industry professionals. The Palm Beach Garden center features the HearAcademy Learning Center, where HCPs can access ongoing educational training to remain up-to-date with technological advancements and ensure clients receive high quality hearing care at all HearUSA centers nationwide.
Furthermore, HearUSA is launching the Hearing Instrument Specialist (HIS) Apprentice Program, providing a pathway for Client Experience Specialists and external candidates to gain the necessary education and clinical experience to become licensed Hearing Care Professionals.
