An employee must be given a baseline audiogram upon initial hiring, audiograms are given annually thereafter and compared to the employee's baseline to determine if hearing loss is occurring. Vallen Occupational Health Services has set themselves apart from the competition with the quality of our mobile audiometric testing facilities. When we entered the hearing services market we surveyed customers to determine what they wanted in a mobile service provider. As a result of that survey, our mobile units are spacious with bright white interiors and higher than standard height ceiling. They are kept extremely clean and are each equipped with two high capacity air conditioners to maintain a comfortable testing environment.
Every test includes a complete otoscopic examination.
Testing services are available in both English and Spanish and we can provide this service anywhere in the continental United States. It takes 30 minutes to test a group of eight persons. Our mobile units meet all the requirements set forth by the National Hearing Conservation Association for mobile hearing test providers. Power is provided by an ultra-quiet diesel powered generator that is positioned away from the trailer. The audiometer and each headset are calibrated and noise levels inside the booth are monitored to ensure that both OSHA and ANSI standards are being met.
