Somerset County Announces Free Hearing Tests

Hearing loss is one of the most common conditions affecting older adults. Hearing problems can make it difficult to understand and follow a doctor’s advice, to respond to warnings, and to hear doorbells and alarms.

The Raritan Senior Center, located at 614 First Ave., will host free hearing tests from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 11. The screening will be conducted by representatives from Total Hearing Care.

If you wish to make a lunch reservation, please contact the senior center by 10:30 a.m. at least one business day in advance. A suggested lunch donation of $1.50 is recommended for individuals age 60 and older. Donations support senior center activities. The cost of lunch for those under 60 years old is $5.35.

The Raritan Senior Center is one of seven centers operated by the Somerset County Office on Aging. The senior center offers a variety of educational, recreational and entertaining activities for seniors, including wellness programs and health screenings.

For more information, contact Manager Lynda Augustine, Raritan Senior Center, at (908) 203-0001.
