Audiologists place a tiny set of earphones on the baby, and attach electrodes on the baby's head. The test takes between three to 20 minutes, depending on the baby. Audiologists will perform the test in the NICU and on children considered at high risk for impairments. Nurses on the well-baby unit are being trained to perform the test, and over time, they will eventually perform all the screenings on these babies.

Confidentiality is a matter of respecting our patients' right to privacy.
Not looking up information on friends or family members. Not leaving charts unattended in the hallways. Not sharing passwords. Not discussing patient information in the halls or on elevators. But the administration is carefully considering plans for a new sacred space in Duke Clinic.
