Army Hearing Program/Hearing Conservation

Mission:

The Fort Leonard Wood Hearing Program strives to prevent hearing loss and enhance communication for noise exposed personnel. The program has four major elements: hearing readiness, clinical hearing services, operational hearing services, and hearing conservation. Good hearing is essential for a Soldier’s SURVIVABILITY and LETHALITY in combat. Noise induced hearing loss, on the other hand, has significant negative personal, financial, and mission impact on our Soldiers, civilian employees, and the Army.

Services:

Walk-ins welcome.  Hearing tests provided for Active Duty Service Members and designated Federal employees for purposes of completing Physical Health Assessments and updating MEDPROS (annual, pre/post-deployment, and physicals). Soldiers should bring their hearing protection with them to complete a fit check. 
  • Initial hearing tests
  • Annual Hearing Tests (Military and noise-exposed civilian workers)
  • Hearing Protection Fittings (Earplugs)
  • Hearing Conservation Officer Training
