Audiological Services
A hearing loss, if go untreated, may result in speech defects, communication, learning and behavioral problems. Phonak provides hearing assessment services to all age groups including infants, toddlers and young children with autism, behavioral problems, speech delay and handicaps.
Otoacoustic Emissions Test is a test that looks at the mechanical responses of the outer hair cells of the cochlea. It helps to confirm the site of lesion and the presence of a mechanism required for normal functioning of the hearing process. The test can be applied to all age groups including newborns and malingerers. It is non-invasive and can be undertaken whilst the subject is asleep.
Professional Hearing Aid Fitting for all ages
An effective hearing aid fitting programme serves to bring the gift of enhanced hearing to the hearing impaired person. A pair of optimally-fitted hearing aids functions to improve client’s speech communication ability and ease communication with their family and friends.
To provide the hearing impaired person with the highest hearing quality possible, Phonak continuously sets new standards in our products and service procedures. We ensure that the hearing aid user is most appropriately fitted through various objective measurements including real ear measurements,electroacoustic measurements, aided threshold testing and tests for Loudness Discomfort. Assessments will be made on the client’s communicative ability following aid fitting. Hearing instrument fine tuning, counseling on communication tactics and education issues and hearing rehabilitation will be conducted.
Hearing HealthCare Programmes
Over the years, Phonak has designed various hearing healthcare programmes for different sectors of the community, aiming to raise awareness on the importance of hearing health care. Some examples are the Employment Hearing Healthcare Programme (for hearing conservation and noise-induced hearing loss), Elderly Hearing Aid Fitting Programme and Children Hearing Healthcare Programme. Life without hearing will be miserable and we believe precautionary measures and early treatment are the way to go.
