Far greater than just a social distancing tool, telehealth is changing the way we\u2019re able to care for you and your family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In these unprecedented times of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, many health care workers are turning to telehealth\u2014the convergence of telecommunication (phone calls, video chats, text messages) and health\u2014primarily to suppress the spread of the virus while still providing health care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the benefits of this invaluable tool go way beyond combatting infectious diseases. Bridging all long-distant patient gaps, lack of transport, mobility, economic status, restricted staff\u2014the list is plentiful. Add to that improvements in practice efficiency and overall patient satisfaction, and it\u2019s a win-win for all involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zooming in on audiological care, telehealth, or teleaudiology as it\u2019s known in the hearing world, enables patients to connect with audiologists from the comfort of their own homes via computer equipment. Furthermore, in combination with technological advancements in hearing aids themselves, smartphone apps allow audiologists to actually program and adjust hearing aids remotely.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one recent study at the University of South Dakota Speech, Language and Hearing Department of hearing loss patients with dementia, researchers even found that teleaudiology can be even more effective than regular audiologic care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monitored and cared for remotely via real-time video calls, text and voice chat services, providers rated patients\u2019 \u201cgeneral comprehension\u201d as 4.5 on average on a 5-point scale in the teleaudiology period, compared to 2.7 when they weren\u2019t using the remote service, adding that the remote service both decreased patients\u2019 stress and improved their \u201calertness\u201d and \u201cawareness.\u201d[1]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
