Join us as we take an in-depth look at referring for cochlear implantation and Baha through case studies that you may commonly see in the clinic. Over the course of this webinar, we’ll demonstrate real life examples of patients who have been guided through the candidate process by Cochlear’s Engagement Team, and how this service can assist both you as a clinician, but more importantly – your clients. Cochlear implantation has seen significant technological advancement over the past decade, and as such, indications for implantation have expanded. After this webinar, you’ll be well informed of the most current guidelines for both cochlear implantation and Baha, increasing your ability to spot potential candidates, and feel more aware of the common barriers for patients in taking that next step towards improved hearing and quality of life.
