Lima Memorial Offering Hearing and Balance Screening

Lima Memorial Offering Hearing and Balance Screening

Lima Memorial Health System's Rehab Services Department will be offering a free Hearing and Balance Screening on Wednesday, April 13 from 1 to 4 p.m. The screening will be held at Lima Group Family Physicians, 1003 Bellefontaine Ave., Suite 125 in Professional Office Building III.

The balance and vestibular screening will be offered to detect dizziness and instability, which is often accompanied by nausea.

Not all dizziness is due to the inner ear and an individual with a balance issue may not be dizzy. The balance and vestibular screening will help narrow down these results.

An audiologist will also be on hand offering free hearing screenings to those who have difficulties hearing.

The balance screening will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. and the hearing screening will be from 1 to 4 p.m. To schedule an appointment, please call 419.226.5093, pre-registration is preferred.

For more information, please contact Rebecca Jenkins, director of marketing and public relations at 419.998.4645.
