With more than 1.3 million Veterans impacted by some loss of hearing, VA is focused intently on changing the way hearing health care services are provided through an effort to bring licensed hearing instrument specialists to every VA facility.
Working as a hearing instrument specialist, you’ll partner with Veterans on their journey back to better hearing. Whether it’s conducting the hearing test in preparation for hearing aid fitting or making sure they’re comfortable with their new hearing aids, your work is vitally important to helping our patients regain one of their most valuable senses.
While you’re doing your important work, we’ll also help you care for yourself and your family with numerous employment benefits. From the variety of health plans that all cover preexisting conditions to comprehensive group life insurance, from extensive paid time off to flexible schedules, VA has what you need to offer you and your family members peace of mind.
