- Description:
-
e-Audiology is designed to play a key role in supporting the Department of Health’s National Audiology Programme by helping those working within audiology services to provide essential care for their patients.
The project has a core curriculum that provides a comprehensive suite of e-learning courses to support assistant and associate audiologists, audiologists, GPs, GP practice staff, other healthcare professionals and volunteers across the NHS.
The curriculum has three modules of e-learning designed to support the patient pathway:
Module 1 – Designed for assistant audiologists and includes general skills, anatomy and physiology, acoustics and psycho-acoustics, pure tone audiometry, pathology, symptoms and management options of ear and related conditions, hearing loss, auditory intervention and screening and diagnostic investigations.
Module 3 – For primary care professionals who are caring for people with common audiological problems (balance problems, ear wax, tinnitus and hearing impairment) with the aim to improve recognition of key symptoms, management and referral pathways.
Module 4 – To help raise awareness of available technologies, systems and tools which provide support for people working in audiology services.
e-Audiology supports the National Audiology Programme by providing a training resource that encourages the continuing professional development of staff.
All e-Audiology courses have been written and reviewed by practicing audiologists and use multimedia features such as animation and self assessment to support the learning.
