AURAL REHABILITATION USING THE PROGRAM AMPTIFY DTX
SATURDAY OCTOBER 8, 2022
Amplify is an aural rehabilitation program founded in 2015 by Nancy Tye-Murray and her aural rehabilitation research team at the Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine. Even with hearing aids, many listening skills are weakened with hearing loss, including auditory memory, discrimination, and processing speed leading to difficulty communicating or withdrawal from past activities previously enjoyed. Amptify DTx is a program to help strengthen the cognitive skills that are needed for listening through interactive programs and science-backed video games. It is an app-based program that is available for iOS (Apple), Android, and via the web browser.
WE HOPE TO RETURN TO IN-PERSON MEETINGS SOON!
We're "Hear" to Help!
Join us each month for refreshments and a professionally presented program. Many of our speakers are Bay Area experts in the fields of research, audiology, technology and assistive hearing devices. All programs are Looped (a hearing assist that works with the T-coil function of your hearing aids) as well as transcribed in real-time on a screen at the front of our room.
Join us for our informative and entertaining monthly meetings!
