Empowering Your Clients to Live Skillfully with Hearing Loss
People with hearing loss are most successful when their goal moves beyond ‘hearing better’ to ‘communicating better’. It’s not always easy to do, but in this vibrant session, Shari Eberts & Gael Hannan will demonstrate strategies to help your clients do just that.
In addition to a broad range of hearing technology, clients must engage in other strategies that are often underrepresented or overlooked in standard clinical practice, such as the reframing of attitudes towards hearing loss and embracing a range of non-technical, behavioral game-changers. Without these communication-based strategies, clients will often continue to struggle, even with the best hearing aids.
In this course, Shari and Gael will introduce client-centered concepts that can help you empower your clients to develop an improved mindset that will transform them into stronger self-advocates and better relationship-builders who are equipped to improve almost any listening situation.
