title: Hearing health care: information for the health professional.
abstract: In summary, the field ofaudiology and the role of the audiologist are vast and encompass a wide range of diagnostic testing and rehabilitative treatment plans. It is not through the sole care of the audiologist that a patient would receive treatment for the conditions mentioned above. In order to provide optimal patient care, the support and intervention of various health care providers and family members are necessary for the best possible outcome for the patient.
