Colorado Audiology LEND Tele-health/Tele-education Project
The Marion Downs Hearing Center (MDHC) has used tele-health/tele-education to support to professionals and children who are deaf or hard of hearing and their families since 2007. The Co-LEND project includes practicing audiologists in rural areas of Colorado who are part-time post-doc LEND trainees. Their goals focus on expanding their expertise, experience and capacity to serve infants and children. The Post-doc trainees participate in on-site training at the MDHC with faculty and off site mentorship via tele-health supervision. The 4th year AuD Pre-doc LEND fellow also supports this training by participating in the provision of services in the designated rural settings, also with tele-health supervision. The implementation of the project began in 2009 and will continue with added sites through 2011.
