Audiologists Explore Hearing Loss and Dementia Link at African Partners in Practice Forum Summit
Audiologists Rene, Rozelle, and Lauren from our practice from, Gehoor in die Moot, recently immersed themselves in a two-day summit hosted by the African Partners in Practice Forum. The event, featuring experts Dr. Cliff Olsen and Dr. Keith Darrow, spotlighted the intriguing connection between hearing loss and dementia.
Dr. Keith Darrow, renowned for his dual roles as a neuroscientist and audiologist, unveiled the neural pathways linking hearing loss to cognitive decline. His emphasis on early intervention as a preventive measure left a lasting impact on attendees.
Dr. Cliff Olsen, leveraging his wealth of experience, shared practical strategies to address cognitive issues stemming from hearing loss. Tailored approaches for patients of various ages underscored the importance of individualised care. He started his YouTube channel – Doctor Cliff, AuD – to educate consumers on their hearing loss treatment options and the importance of Hearing Aid Best Practices.
The summit served as a platform for our audiologists to fortify their commitment to cutting-edge care. Armed with insights from the event, Rene, Rozelle, and Lauren are better equipped to offer comprehensive solutions for our patients’ hearing health and cognitive well-being.
Participation in the African Partners in Practice Forum summit underlines our practice’s dedication to excellence and innovation. The fusion of expertise and compassion continues to drive our mission, ensuring our patients receive the utmost care.
