Noise is prevalent in everyday life, and the general population lacks awareness of the risks of hazardous noise exposure and strategies to reduce noise-induced hearing loss. By integrating hearing loss prevention education into patient encounters and taking advantage of outreach/education opportunities, audiologists can help reduce the prevalence of noise-induced hearing loss. This course discusses the why, where, and how of integrating prevention education into your practice.

You will be able to:

• Discuss potential comorbidities associated with noise-induced hearing loss
• Communicate hearing loss prevention strategies to patients as part of their hearing health care delivery
• List possible outreach opportunities for building awareness of the auditory and non-auditory risks of hazardous noise exposure
