Hearing Health Care
According to the World Health Organization, one-third of individuals over the age of 65 are affected by hearing loss, and 1 billion teenagers and young adults are at risk for permanent hearing loss as a result of noise exposure secondary to personal music/audio devices.
In the Hearing Health Care Clinic, graduate student clinicians provide high-standard, patient-centered care to children and adults who have hearing loss and communication difficulties. Patients receive multidisciplinary evaluations and treatment or management techniques.
Certified Jabra Enhance Center
Many are struggling with their hearing and traditional hearing aids can be a big help. Jabra Enhance Plus has been specifically engineered to help bridge the average 6-year gap between first noticing some hearing loss and actually seeking help.
