Cochlear Implant Basics: What a Candidate for a Cochlear Implant Needs to Know is designed as both a guide and a companion. For many, the suggestion of a cochlear implant can be overwhelming-even frightening. Author Richard Pocker's goal is to dispel misconceptions, answer common questions, and provide a clear path through what can often feel like uncharted territory. Within these pages, you'll find the transcripts of twenty-five podcast interviews, rehabilitation exercises used after surgery and activation, and a carefully curated list of resources. Together, these resources form a roadmap for anyone considering or beginning the cochlear implant journey.
Above all, Cochlear Implant Basics is about hope and connection. A cochlear implant can restore not only speech comprehension and awareness of environmental sounds but also the joy of music, the ease of a phone call, and the simple yet profound gift of participation in daily life. This book's objective is to reach those sitting on the fence and encourage them to step forward-to leave the isolation of deafness behind and rediscover the fullness of living.
