The Challenge: Move the Hearing Screening Guideline to the next level.
|
The Plan: Pull together at least 2 audiologists and 2 SLPs to brainstorm, share ideas,
and make it happen!
|
What to expect in the discussions:
|
- the use of computer-based audiometry; and
- apps for adult hearing screening.
|
Inclusion of these tools would decrease expenses and unnecessary appointments. If this sounds like a project you would like to have an impact on, click the button below to view more information AND sign up!
