Rehabilitation

Once your cochlear implant is switched on, most people can ‘hear’ sounds, but it takes time for them to be able to ‘listen’ and make sense of these sounds. Rehab helps your brain to adjust to this new way of listening and help your brain to make sense and understand the sounds you are hearing.

In this section of our website you will find information, advice and exercises to help develop your listening skills.

The process of rehab is to first detect sound, then differentiate between sounds, and then hear words and speech. Browse our adult and children resources to find more information and rehab activites.
