Need an OFFICIAL Hearing Exam?

Recourse testing is a more comprehensive audiologic examination, often required by employers, if the employee does not pass an initial screening. Depending on the individual requirements, this may include a comprehensive audiologic evaluation, speech-in-noise testing, sound-field testing, aided testing, etc.

Why Do Some Employers Require This Testing?

For careers that require a keen ear, sometimes employers will order applicants or trainees to take a hearing exam before being placed in a job. If the subject fails the initial hearing-screening test, recourse testing can be ordered. This testing will paint a more detailed picture of what’s really going on with the subject’s hearing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get rid of the dizziness?

Typically, symptoms resolve on their own, but treatment can be provided either in home or at a practice that treats balance issues. AwesomeAudiology can help with your vertigo and other balance and dizziness disorders.

How long does vertigo last?

A vertigo attack may last only a few seconds, or a few hours. This may last only a matter of weeks, or it may be an ongoing problem. People with persistent, ongoing vertigo may be in danger of harming themselves or others, making treatment a necessity.

Why do I get dizzy when I stand up?

Blood pressure drops excessively when you sit or stand, causing dizziness. This dizziness can resolve rapidly within a few seconds if the person lies down. Some people do faint, however, and symptoms tend to be more common and worse after exercise, consuming alcohol, or eating a heavy meal. Low blood flow to the brain can cause dizziness and other symptoms, and is not necessarily a result of vertigo. Because reasons for dizziness vary depending upon specific medical conditions, individuals who experience excessive dizziness when shifting body positions are encouraged to contact our practice for a full consultation.
