Family Hearing Workshops in Bhutan
Families play a vital role in the rehabilitation of children with hearing impairment. This was the theme of the HHA’s recent Family curriculum workshops in Bhutan attended by 15 parents and audiologists. The trainers who had previously graduates from MED-EL’s Professional Certificate in Hearing Rehabilitation led sessions on how to build a child’s agency with ‘power words’, the role of play in rehabilitation and other ways to support the development of hearing and language.
PCHR Certificates Awarded in Bhutan
The HHA was honoured to welcome the Austrian Ambassador to Bhutan, H.E. Katarina Wieser, from Austrian Embassy New Delhi to witness our work and present the certificates from the recent Professional Certificate in Hearing Rehabilitation!
Rehab Training for Families
The families of children with hearing impairment need specialised skills to give their loved ones the best start in life. This is why the HHA has developed the Family Curriculum Workshop to give the families of children with Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants advanced techniques to support their rehabilitation.
Bhutan Diagnostic Devices
The 18th November 2022 and the following three days became significant dates for the Bhutanese hearing healthcare development. To support the hearing healthcare system two diagnostic devices were handed over to the ENT/Audiology department of JDWNRH in Thimphu.
