Spring Break 2024 Participant
I learned to be patient and flexible. Each day and client had different needs and required flexibility in order to provide the best care with the given situations and obstacles.

Spring Break 2024 Participant
My favorite part of this program was getting hands on clinic practice with children and adults from a diverse background.

Spring Break 2024 Participant
Something small I learned in the program is the importance of letting the parents be even more involved in the initial activation of hearing aids. Usually when hearing aids are activated, we as audiologists start asking the patient about the sound quality they're receiving. Our professor advised that we make more of a conscious effort to have the children's parents do the initial communication following the activation of their child's hearing aids.
