14 Point ChecklistOur Process
1. Free 15 Minute Phone Call
Before we start to do any assessments, it’s important for us to understand the broader picture and what
else is going on in your life, and if an assessment is right for you or your loved one.
This is a 100% complimentary session that we do over the phone.
It will help us make sure this is the right path, if it’s not we will suggest a next step for you.
2. APD Assessment
We work with clients across New Zealand. Your assessment can be conducted either
in person or via our telehealth system.
This first assessment will include an extensive range of tests including
comprehensive testing and assessment for Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) by a
trained NZAS audiologist.
After the assessment, we will provide you with a comprehensive report covering our
findings.
Having an assessment can be life-changing as it will shed some light on what is
going on and also identify any areas where there is a need for help. Once we
understand what is going on, Bounse can discuss various treatment options.
3. Treatment
For some people, one of the initial steps is to look at a Remote Microphone
(RM) or Frequency Modulation (FM) hearing aids. We can also discuss
whether low gain hearing aids would be beneficial.
For others, there is the opportunity to join a Bounse Brain and Auditory
Training (BAT) Programme. Each programme is customised to best fit the
specific needs of the individual.
Every case is different and unique and that is why the assessment is so
important as the first step in the process.
