To be fair I think the target professionals are already qualified professionals right? So usually these want to upskill , I think makes a difference in the quiz
I like your idea 💡 Michael, but I like the how this will change my practice 🙌
Frage im Seminar:
1.How do you manage the assessment of patients whose native language is not English?
2.In particular, are there specific adaptations or alternative measures you use to minimise the linguistic bias of speech perception tests and avoid confusing limited English proficiency with auditory difficulty?
3.How do you counsel patients who have useful residual low-frequency hearing after cochlear implantation and could potentially benefit from electro-acoustic stimulation?
4.In particular, how do you approach processor selection when they strongly prefer an off-the-ear processor for cosmetic or lifestyle reasons, even though a behind-the-ear processor would allow acoustic amplification?
5.Do you routinely encourage a trial with electro-acoustic stimulation before accepting an electric-only solution?

Very good questions – Lali was extremely positive about Camille Dunn!
