Description:
Under ideal
conditions, children with hearing loss receive services from both a clinical
audiologist and an educational audiologist to support their unique needs.
Collaboration between these professionals is critical to the success of these
children, and this webinar will discuss overcoming obstacles that may interfere
with this partnership. The presenters will explore barriers and practical
solutions to collaboration challenges such as difficulties with
cross-professional communication, staffing concerns in schools, and more.
