“I focus on domiciliary and care homes because there is a huge gap”
Andrew Goodwin from The Clean Ears shares how the Tympa System enables him to deliver domiciliary ear & hearing healthcare to care homes & their residents in his local community.
Domiciliary care with Tympa
"My business is focused on domiciliary. I go to people’s homes or care homes and because the system is so portable, it means that I can travel on public transport and go anywhere. It doesn’t take up a lot of space and is really simple to use. I like the fact that when I come into a place, I’m not overwhelming a space with lots of equipment, If I were using a traditional piece of equipment, I couldn’t do that."

Many residents, especially those with dementia, with a hearing loss feel isolated and lonely and can struggle to communicate with loved ones and care staff. Wax blockage, impacted or excess ear wax is a common occurrence that can be avoided, but often access to ear and hearing healthcare services is limited. Domiciliary care workers are uniquely positioned to provide this service to care homes and their residents.
The Tympa is a highly portable device that empowers domiciliary care workers to perform digital otoscopy, microsuction wax removal using a suction unit* and a hearing check – from the comfort of a patients home.
Find out how you can expand your services to deliver ear and hearing healthcare in your community.
*The Tympa requires additional accessories to perform the microsuction procedure.
