HEARING TESTS- THE LOW DOWN
Audiology Associates offer FREE HEARING HEALTH ASSESSMENTS to all our adult patients.
The first step in discovering if you do indeed have a hearing loss can be quite daunting and the cause of increased anxiety. This maybe down to the fear of the unknown, or that you have been putting off the inevitable for some time. Either way you are in the greatest and most patient of hands with our team.
Our tests all take place in sound proof facilities, ensuring the accuracy of your results. We have invested in state of the are diagnostic equipment to support this process. We undertake comprehensive diagnostic testing of your hearing following best practice guidelines. With a full diagnosis we can then address your suitability for hearing aids and advise on the best solution for your needs.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE TESTING PROCESS?
There are many ways that we can test hearing. At audiology Associates we address your hearing assessment in a 5 step approach:
1. Medical History
2. Lifestyle Needs
3. Ear Examination
4. Pure Tone Audiometry Test
5. Tympanometry
Your Audiometry Test will take place in a Sound Proof Booth which is especially manufactured for accuracy. You will be requested to wear headphones that are placed over your ears. Next pure tones will be presented through the headphones, you will listen for the softest sound levels you can detect and will push a button to register your response.
Our audiologist may also perform a bone conduction test, this tests or a tympanometry test, this measures how well the middle ear system is working, including the movement of your eardrum. A small amount of air is pumped into the outer ear canal. This shows whether there are any blockages that may be causing your hearing loss.
Results of your tests will be presented to you immediately and we will walk forward together providing you with the best hearing aid solution for your needs. A full hearing health evaluation takes between 40 & 60 minutes depending on your circumstances.
FREE TWO WEEK TRIAL
The friendly team at Audiology Associates are not sales people, they are all Clinical Audiologists. You will not be expected to make a decision on the day, instead we will offer you the opportunity to take advantage of a FREE TWO WEEK TRIAL of suitable hearing aids to meet your needs. The fitting appointment of your trial aids usually falls between 3 & 7 days after your initial appointment.
During that two weeks all we ask is that you commit to trialling your hearing aid and wear it daily. If at the end of your trial you are happy with your hearing aid, we will ask you to make payment and plan your journey moving forward with the team. If you are not ready to commit that is no problem at all, all we ask is that you remember the team are at hand for any changes you would like to make or questions you may have.
