I spoke at the Cochlear Community Chapter Event in Oakbrook, Illinois on the 12th of December. I was asked to share about Listen With Lynn™, my online store and the growing suite of resources and activities for recipients and professionals. I presented on Auditory Rehabilitation and how to become the Boss of Your Hearing Loss.
It was an interactive group who were fascinated with my Game Changers For Auditory Rehabilitation. I introduced both
Game Changer for Auditory Rehabilitation - BATTLESHIP
Game Changer For Auditory Rehabilitation - Uno Card Game
Game Changers are auditory rehabilitation activities played with commercially available games. They have pre-game companion exercises created for cochlear implant users which foster listening and communication success. The games can be incorporated in auditory rehabilitation sessions or played at home.
I enjoyed hearing remarkable stories of many Cochlear recipients and their family and friends and chatted with others considering implantable hearing devices.
