Occupational Hearing Protection
for Greenwich, CT; Scarsdale, Mt. Kisco, White Plains, Harrison, Rye, Somers, NY & Beyond
Loud sounds are a part of so many occupations in the United States, whether the sound is caused by gunfire, music, or equipment related to the job. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), people should keep noise level below 85 dBA for eight hours to avoid hearing loss. No matter your occupation, you should take proper steps to protect your ears for the short and long-term. Get in touch
with the team at Audiology Associates of Westchester to learn more about the right occupational hearing protection for your line of work! Our audiologist is proud to serve patients across White Plains, NY; Harrison, NY; Scarsdale, NY; Rye, NY; Mt. Kisco, NY; and Greenwich, CT. We'd also like to introduce the opening of our newest office in Somers, NY on September 13th, 2021.
Musicians
While musicians are often exposed to dangerous noise levels, normal earplugs cover up all the sounds they need to hear. We can create custom ear molds to protect your hearing while still leaving you able to hear the music. We also provide in-ear monitors; just call us to learn more!
Hunters
Gunshot sounds range from 140 to 190 decibels, far above the acceptable point of safe sounds. Hunting and recreational shooting involve listening to the quiet sounds around you, so special hearing protection is necessary for these tasks. You can select an over-the-counter earplug or a customized electronic earplug.
Law Enforcement
Firing a gun creates dangerously loud noise, but law enforcement officers need to hear their surroundings at all times. Protect your hearing on the job by calling Audiology Associates of Westchester for customized protection. Our team will make sure you don’t suffer from irreversible ear damage.
