Hearing Health
How can I obtain a referral?
Referrals for hearing assessment can be made when either an individual, their family, carers, employers or health care providers raise concerns about an adult's hearing. An individual may contact an audiologist directly, or a referral can be made in consultation with a:
-
General Practitioner
-
Ear Nose and Throat Specialist (ENT)
-
Other medical specialist
-
Other health care provider
At the age of 21 years most people who have been receiving hearing support services from a paediatric program or Australian Hearing will need to change service providers. Existing services can provide information to assist them in finding an appropriate provider.
