Yes. You can deduct the cost of your mother's hearing aids and batteries along with any other medical/dental/insurance/prescription costs that you pay for. Please keep in mind that you need to itemize and a threshold of 7.5% of your AGI needs to be met before these expenses help you.

Please feel free to post any additional details or questions in the comment section.
