Phonak
Hearing Care for Adults 2009 - The Challenge of Aging
November 16-18 • Hyatt Regency Chicago
| www.phonak.com/conference

This exciting conference focuses on the special needs of the older population and brings together leading experts in aging and in audiology from around the world. Participants will learn about the special needs of the elderly and how best to provide them with amplification and a range of rehabilitation services that address their needs. This conference is designed specifically for clinicians who work everyday with older people with hearing impairment. Each of the speakers will relate their cutting edge research findings to clinical practice, addressing the clinical questions: How are older clients different from younger adults? What should I do differently for older clients? How can I improve the services I offer this population? The conference provides excellent opportunities for learning, but also for sharing experiences about working with older people. Stimulating interactive discussions will occur in the podium discussion, clinician’s forum and the poster session. On behalf of the conference steering committee, I invite you to join us in Chicago for this exciting conference. It is a wonderful opportunity to learn new things about hearing health care for the elderly and an opportunity to visit one of America’s most interesting and vibrant cities! I look forward to welcoming you to Chicago in November. --Prof. Louise Hickson, Conference Chair Early bird registration available until September 15, 2009; Poster submission ends August 15, 2009
