What is Audiology?
Audiology is the science of hearing that includes the non-medical
treatment and rehabilitation of persons with impaired hearing and/or
persons with inner ear problems that may disturb a person's balance.
An audiologist is the person who:
- scientifically measures hearing ability in children and adults
- identifies the presence and severity of any hearing problem
- provides practical suggestions on how to handle communication
situations at home, work, school, and other places so that the effects of
the problems are reduced
- tests to determine if amplification devices, such as hearing aids
will help
- instructs the person in speech (lip) reading
- counsels the person on possible strategies and solutions to problems
that a person with hearing loss may face (ASHA, 1995)
- identifies and provides rehabilitation for persons with vestibular or
inner ear problems.
