Comprehensive Hearing Tests, No Sound Booth Needed
Our advanced boothless testing technology delivers accurate results in your home, ensuring a stress-free experience.
What Are Hearing Tests?
Hearing tests are crucial for identifying hearing loss early, allowing timely treatment and intervention. These tests provide valuable insights into your hearing health by assessing your ability to hear sounds at various frequencies and volumes. Regular hearing tests can significantly improve your quality of life by identifying issues that may otherwise go unnoticed.
Leaving hearing loss untreated can lead to different types of difficulties in communication, social isolation, and over time, cognitive decline. By detecting hearing issues early, it is possible to take proactive steps to improve hearing health and maintain an active lifestyle in which you can be engaged.
Hospital-Quality Testing at Home
We offer advanced boothless audiometry technology, which allows us to perform hearing tests in the comfort of your home. This means you don’t have to travel to a clinic or endure the discomfort of a soundproof booth to receive accurate, professional results.
Our state-of-the-art portable equipment ensures that each client receives the same level of precision and reliability as those who are tested in a clinic. With this convenient option, a hearing test can take place in a comfortable and familiar environment, such as a home or senior center. This reduces stress and makes the process much easier. In-home testing further allows the home hearing specialists to assess your hearing in real-world conditions. This gives us a better understanding of how different environments affect your hearing. The personalized approach ensures that whatever hearing solutions are recommended are tailored to your personal needs.
Types of Hearing Tests
Audiometric Testing
Assesses your hearing sensitivity across different frequencies. This particular test will measure the softest sounds you can hear at a given pitch to provide insight into the depth of your hearing loss.
Tympanometry and Acoustic Reflexes
Evaluates the middle ear function and response to sound stimuli. This test is beneficial for detecting blockages, eardrum issues, and fluid buildup.
DPOAEs (Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions)
A test that measures the function of the outer hair cells in the cochlea. It helps determine whether the inner ear is functioning properly. If it is not, then you may have sensorineural hearing loss.
Communication Needs Assessment
Helps determine how hearing loss may impact your ability to communicate effectively in daily life. This assessment is personalized to consider factors like speech comprehension, background noise tolerance, and your levels of social engagement. Each test provides insight that can be valuable in helping to create a customized care plan that will support your hearing health.
