Regional Hearing Aid Bank (ReHAB)
The Regional Hearing Aid Bank, ReHAB for short, is designed to provide one hearing aid to those members of our community who are unable to afford them. It utilizes donated behind-the-ear hearing aids which can be refurbished and reprogrammed for use by another person. This program currently has a 2-3 year waiting list to receive one hearing aid.The ReHAB program is designed particularly for members of the community who are unable to be served by the Veterans’ Administration, Vocational Rehabilitation program, insurances or other third-party providers and whose annual income is less than 200% of the federal poverty level. There is an application process and a waiting list for these services.
The Warren Center’s cochlear implant program is the state’s only cochlear implant programming / mapping facility that is able to work with all three implant companies. Additionally, this facility is the only site in Maine able to provide these services to children with cochlear implants.
