Free hearing screenings

In honor of Better Hearing and Speech Month, TJH Medical Services is offering infants, children and adults free hearing screenings to help residents determine if they have hearing loss and raise awareness about the importance of hearing and speech.

The screenings will be conducted by an audiologist in the facility’s soundproof audio booth. State-of-the-art equipment, such as an audiometer, middle ear analyzer, otoacoustic emissions, and a video system for pediatric patients, will be used to evaluate potential hearing loss.

Those wishing to participate must have appointments, which can be arranged by calling 718-206-7110. The facility is located at 89-06 135th Street in Suite 2T. The tests will be offered from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesday, May 18.
