Cochlear Implant (CI) Program

• This program, headed by Ms. Madhuri Gore, was launched in 1996, and has been running successfully for the past 11 years at ISH. The Institute is fully equipped to assess and rehabilitate clients with cochlear implants.

• There are broadly two steps in the execution of the CI program. (1) Pre-surgical assessment for candidacy (2) Post-surgical rehabilitation, which includes customizing (mapping) the device and providing auditory verbal therapy (AVT).
