New course dates announced for Audiology training by @TracyJamesAudiologist

Our 4^th of December @ The British Society of Audiology accredited course in impression-taking is set to go ahead as planned at @Newbury College as impression-taking comes under the category medical services. Making a good impression of the ear is a skill that develops with experience, but first and foremost must be safe. Our courses focus on safety to each other and our patients / clients as a priority and will follow the British Society of Audiology guidance for both the procedure and covid-19 safety. As a result, we are pleased to announce another date on the 29^th of January 2020 for impression-taking and a course in February for Audiometry and Tympanometry.

Feedback from courses:

Surveillance Audiometry

“Very informative with powerpoint and we had plenty of time during the practice sessions”

Impression Taking

“Getting hands on with the impression material and being guided through the correct technique. Also being able to practice on other students”

“Very open, inclusive and interactive. Felt like you could ask anything”

“Everything was explained very well and the course leader was very patient with everyone and ensured that we were competent with all of the equipment”

“The practical side of the course was great, we had lots of opportunities to practice on different people”

Adult Impression Taking

“As a complete, beginner and slightly nervous of the practical aspect, there was a great deal of empathy and confidence building through out, you never felt left behind. It was good to be led by example, and the opportunity to practice with a hand on approach was excellent” [Training course]

“Good balance of theory and practice”

“The course is very clear and well laid out. The examples of inner ear photographs were really helpful”

“Information was on point and demonstrations showed a real professional touch without being patronising”

“Being able to practice on other students knowing you have supervision from very experienced Audiologists who can instruct you in the correct way of doing Otoscopy and Impression taking had been one of the many strengths of the course. By giving you a strong foundation in Impression taking and Otoscopy along with in-depth discussion on contraindications the course arms you with so much more confidence and knowledge to pursue this area at work”
