What do Assistive Technology Supplier Audiologists do?
An Assistive Technology Supplier Audiologist (ATSA) evaluates a patient’s hearing loss, selects, customizes, and fits appropriate hearing assistive technologies (HATs), and provides training and support for their use to improve the patient’s ability to communicate and interact with their environment.
They recommend devices such as amplified phones, alerting systems, and telecoil-equipped hearing aids or cochlear implants, tailoring them to the patient’s specific needs and environments.
Responsibilities
Support and Follow-Up: Audiologists provide ongoing care and adjustments as needed, conducting regular check-ins to ensure the technology is effectively addressing the patient’s needs.
Assessment: Audiologists conduct comprehensive hearing exams to understand the extent and nature of a patient’s hearing loss and to identify their specific needs.
Technology Selection: Based on the assessment, they recommend the most suitable HATs from a wide range of options, which can include:
Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants: The primary devices for managing hearing loss.
Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs): Systems that transmit sound directly to a hearing aid or receiver, such as FM systems, infrared systems, and induction loops.
Alerting Devices: Systems that use visual or tactile signals to alert users to sounds like doorbells or smoke alarms.
Amplified Phones: Devices that increase the volume of telephone conversations.
Customization and Fitting: Audiologists tailor the settings of these devices to meet the individual’s unique listening requirements and adapt them for various environments.
Training and Counseling: They educate patients on how to use and maintain their assistive technology, ensuring they understand its capabilities and limitations.
