Hearing and Balance
The Boys Town Hearing and Balance Center integrates current audiology research findings with our world-renowned expertise to provide patients with the most comprehensive hearing healthcare for both children and adults. We match individual hearing needs with the highest performing digital hearing aids available.
Audiology Services include:
Hearing Evaluations
The audiologists at the Hearing and Balance Center provide hearing evaluations to determine the degree and severity of hearing loss. These evaluations are performed on infants, children and adults. Conventional Audiometry is the most common hearing test for adults. In these tests, the patient wears earphones and responds to sounds heard. Hearing evaluations for infants and children include monitoring for visual clues.
Hearing Aids
If you or a loved one is diagnosed with hearing loss and could benefit from hearing aids,
Boys Town audiologists will custom-fit the right device for the patient’s needs. A wide range of manufacturers and options are available to find the best hearing aid solution for each individual patient.
We can also provide custom ear molds for cell phones and other personal listening devices, Bluetooth- and FM-system compatible hearing aids and assistive listening devices for television and telephones.
