RECOGNITION OF EXCELLENCE FOR
Leading Danish hearing aid specialists, GN ReSound, who are responsible for the initiative, only award the title of ‘Centre of Excellence’ to select, highly skilled professionals who demonstrate exemplary patient care and technical expertise.
To be recognised as a ReSound Centre of Excellence, Oxford Hearing Centre were able to clearly demonstrate a commitment to expertise, training and professional development in a clinical and caring environment, with a comprehensive service and aftercare programme.
Richard Moss, Director of Audiology Services at Oxford Hearing Centre said; “We are delighted that the care and service we offer has been recognised by ReSound. Our ethos has always been to put our patients first and we are prepared to spend as much time as is necessary to make sure they get the very best out of their hearing assistive systems. We guarantee that this level of care makes a real, and significant audible difference to their lives”.
Making sure a patient receives the greatest benefit from a hearing instrument is a huge responsibility and requires experience, knowledge and expertise. Unlike a pair of spectacles where the skill lies in the initial diagnosis and the resulting prescription, hearing instruments must be carefully tailored to each individual’s hearing ability. They require skilled, precise electronic programming and continued adjustment, as the patient becomes accustomed to their new world of sound. This fine-tuning can take several appointments over a number of months to get the best possible result.
Ceri Whittaker, Marketing Manager at GN ReSound said; “We appointed Oxford Hearing Centre as our First Centre of Excellence, as it is clear their commitment and dedication to a careful and professional procedure ensures each individual they treat, is getting the utmost benefit from their hearing devices.
“It is this commitment and the evidence of the impact this can have on a hearing impaired person’s life, that led us to award Richard and the team at Oxford Hearing Centre.
“Any person who goes to them receives personalised, on-going fine tuning based on their hearing loss, preferences, lifestyle and physiology. The continuous service and support programme they offer for hearing loss adaption is second to none, that is why Oxford Hearing Centre are our First Centre of Excellence”.
