Narrative

Annual hearing tests were performed on 2/14/2023. It was documented that employee's hearing has dropped below the threshold of EE's original baseline. On 2/20/2023, EE was sent to an audiologist to be retested in a clinic setting and the results were the same. EE is being referred to an ENT doctor to ensure the hearing loss is not due to a medical condition.
