A world-first: TeleAudiology

Seeing an audiologist is difficult for some New Zealanders, especially in remote areas. At Triton Hearing, we aim to eliminate the challenge of distance through TeleAudiology. 

TeleAudiology is made up of communication technology which enables us to organise remote consultations and connect audiologists with clients, regardless of distance. This means we can deliver the same excellent care and service to our clients, even if the client and audiologist are hundreds of kilometres apart.
 
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, the New Zealand Audiology Society and Australian Audiology have endorsed TeleAudiology as an appropriate service delivery model for the audiology profession. Furthermore, the quality of services delivered via TeleAudiology is consistent with the quality of face-to-face services. The New Zealand Ministry of Health has reviewed the technology and provided its initial support.
