Adult Aural Rehabilitation: Patient Feedback Regarding a Collaborative Approach for Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists on a Hospital-Based Cochlear Implant Team
Participation in aural rehabilitation was associated with improved patient cochlear implant satisfaction. A significant barrier to participation was a lack of awareness and understanding of aural rehabilitation and its goals. Further research is indicated to identify effective ways to improve patient awareness and best practices for aural rehabilitation, improving the quality of life for implant recipients.
