What hearing services do you offer?

Hearing screenings, diagnostic audiometric testing, hearing aid fittings, and follow-up care.

Do you work with veterans and VA benefits?

Yes. We help eligible veterans access hearing care and hearing aids through applicable VA programs.

How often should hearing be tested?

Adults should have a baseline test and periodic re-checks, especially with noise exposure or noticeable changes in hearing.

How do I book an appointment?

Call (424) 204-2382 or email info@mobileaudiologyforcaliforniacorrections.com to schedule.

How does on-site audiology fit California's correctional health system?

CCHCS delivers care across all 31 CDCR institutions under Title 15 regulations. On-site audiology supports the 2026 NCCHC standards' timely-access and documentation emphasis without transporting people off-site.

Can hearing tests be done inside a secure facility?

Yes. A boothless, ANSI-compliant audiometer with ambient-noise monitoring lets our in-house audiologist run a defensible clinic inside the facility, coordinated with custody.

What does on-site testing save?

Every avoided transport saves escort staffing, vehicle time, and security exposure, and removes the scheduling delay that pushes a simple hearing check weeks out.

NCCHC's 2026 Standards Meet California's Correctional Health System

Two things frame correctional hearing care in California this year. First, the National Commission on Correctional Health Care's 2026 Standards for Health Services in Jails and Prisons took effect January 1, 2026, arriving in a digital format with expanded telehealth credentialing and a recommended-documentation list for every standard, and leaning on technology to ensure timely access to care.

Second, California Correctional Health Care Services delivers medical, dental, and mental-health care across all 31 CDCR institutions statewide, under regulations published in Title 15, Division 3 of the California Code of Regulations. That is a large, distributed system in which timely, well-documented on-site screening is a genuine operational challenge.

On-site audiology answers both pressures at once: it brings calibrated hearing testing inside the facility, supports the timely-access emphasis the 2026 standards care about, and produces the itemized documentation a survey now expects.

Hearing Care Behind the Wall Reduces Risk and Delay

Moving an incarcerated person out of a facility for a routine hearing test is expensive and carries security exposure — an escort, transport, and time through public space for what is often a fifteen-minute screen. For high-volume, low-acuity audiology, an outside appointment rarely makes sense.

Bringing an in-house audiologist and a boothless, ANSI-compliant audiometer inside the wall removes the transport entirely. Access improves, risk drops, and the record is complete and on-site — the combination the 2026 correctional-health standards are pushing facilities toward.

Field Notes: A Day of Boothless Audiology Inside a CDCR Facility

A screening day inside a correctional facility runs on coordination. Equipment is logged in and out, movements are timed with custody staff, and the clinical station is set up in whatever room keeps ambient noise low enough for the audiometer's monitor to stay green.

The audiologist verifies calibration first, watches background levels throughout, and ties every result to the right individual. Handled cleanly, an entire caseload is screened without a single person leaving the building — the quiet efficiency that makes on-site audiology worth doing.
