Title A name given to the resource Health matters: Special stethoscope for hard of hearing nurse by Susanne Brunner (<em>KARK News Little Rock</em>, 2018) Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived <p>Brunner, S. (2018, June 6). Health matters: Special stethoscope for hard of hearing nurse. <em>KARK News Little Rock</em>. <a href="https://www.kark.com/amazing/health-matters-special-stethoscope-for-hard-of-hearing-nurse/1223035468/">https://www.kark.com/amazing/health-matters-special-stethoscope-for-hard-of-hearing-nurse/1223035468/</a></p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Susanne Brunner Description An account of the resource This news report from Little Rock, Arkansas, NBC affiliate <em>KARK</em> which aired in 2018, demonstrates how digital stethoscope technology enables nurse Clarissa Hardman, who is hard of hearing, to efficiently and accurately complete patient physical examinations through sound amplification played through audio headphones. In this context, the stethoscope fits a definition of assistive technology, wherein the intended purpose is to support functional independence at an individual level. Considered as such, Hardman describes having to apply for an outside grant to purchase the device for herself, rather than being provided with the necessary equipment from her employer.
