Auditory Rehabilitation
• Assess the general auditory (re)habilitative needs of hearing-impaired adults with respect to their audiological status, communication skills and social needs.
• Formulate appropriate management strategies for adults based on this information, including advising patients on communication strategies, hearing aids (including appropriate referral to the cochlea implant clinic), assistive listening devises, providing lip reading and auditory training where appropriate.
• Undertake aural impressions for adults working within national and Departmental protocols
• Assess the benefit derived from hearing aids using subjective and objective measures including information methods, appropriate questionnaires, and insertion gain measurements.
• Provide ongoing assessment and maintenance for adult hearing-impaired patients.
• Provide tinnitus support (training will be provided if needed).
Diagnostic Audiological Assessment
