Cochlear Awareness Network

The Cochlear Awareness Network (CAN) is a group of committed volunteers who are either Cochlear implant recipients or Cochlear Baha recipients. Each and every one of them has had their lives changed through either receiving a Cochlear implant or a Cochlear Baha.

The primary function of the Cochlear Awareness Network is to spread the word about cochlear implants and Cochlear Baha, through volunteers. The volunteers share their personal stories of receiving a cochlear implant or Cochlear Baha through various speaking engagements and personal meetings.

Their role is that of an ambassador, talking about their experience in the hope of bringing hearing to more people than ever before. They offer support, but not advice. They share their knowledge, but they are not medical professionals. The volunteers are not employees of Cochlear™ and participate in these activities in their own time.

• To ensure that candidates receive correct information about Cochlear products
• To advise candidates on the next steps for receiving a Cochlear Implant or Cochlear Baha
