SUMMARY:Healthy Hearing at Fall Indoor Classic
DESCRIPTION:Healthy Hearing is the audiology component of the Healthy Athletes program. The Healthy Hearing screenings were introduced to Special Olympics athletes at the 1999 World Summer Games. \nThe purpose of this program is: \n\nto screen the hearing of athletes;\nnotiify athletes and their guardians/care givers if follow-up care is needed;\nprovide custom swim earplugs if needed; and\nstudy the prevalence of hearing loss in athletes and individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID).\n\n\n\nAthletes are directed through screening stations which:\n\n\nconduct an examination of the ear canals for cerumen (earwax); and\nconduct an otoacoustic (OAE) hearing screening of both ears.\n\n\nIf athletes pass the OAE station\, they exit the screening area. If they do not pass then an examination using tympanometry (middle ear) and pure tone screening is conducted. Upon completion of the screening\, the athlete receives a copy of the screening report form\, which includes follow-up recommendations.\n\n  \nVolunteer here. \nLearn more about Healthy Athletes
