Clinic - Week #1

The first week of clinic I did not see anybody due to the Labor Day holiday and my clinic day is Monday. So, I decided to search something I was interested in; cochlear implants. I found this study that examined the use of the telephone of people who had had a cochlear implant for at least 12 months. So many of us rely on our cell phones for our daily activities such as work, school, planning appoitments, and talking to friends and family. I thought it was interesting and I enjoy reading about cochlear implants. I know we don't have the chance to work with cochlear implants much, so I thought you would enjoy reading about this topic. Hope you like it :)
