The Ida Institute presented a featured session at this year’s Audiology Now! Conference in San Antonio, Texas. The Friday morning session, called Creating the Future of Hearing Health Care, was a chance to share the work we’ve been doing with our Vision 2020 process. Speakers included Dr. Louise Hickson, Dr. John Greer Clark, and Dr. Patricia McCarthy, who were all participants in Vision 2020. Ida Managing Director Lise Lotte Bundesen led the presentation to a full room.
The learning objectives for the session focused the changes taking place in audiology and what the enhanced role of the audiologist will be in the future. This included discussing changing trends in healthcare -- including technological advances – and how audiologists can continue to bring patient centered care into their practices.
We tied in the concept of being “Future-Proof” with an advertisement for the hearing care manager of the future at our booth. You can still take our quiz to help you determine whether your current skill set makes you ready for the coming changes in audiology.
Were you at the featured session? We’d love to hear your feedback.
