As we continue to celebrate our 40th anniversary year, we share more stories of the people who inspire us.
We think you’ll love to ‘meet’ Jim Patrick, Cochlear’s first employee, who worked together with Professor Graeme Clark to create the first multichannel cochlear implant.
For many families, September is the beginning of a new school year. Joining mainstream school is an even bigger milestone for children with hearing loss. Check out 11 year old Evan’s tactics for storing and carrying your Cochlear gear to help make the transition smooth and stress-free.
As always, there are tips and advice, including ways to support your rehab if you live alone and advice from other Cochlear Family members about how to stay connected when you are feeling isolated.
These are only the highlights of this packed issue, so read on and enjoy.
Happy reading!
