The Cochlear Implant program at Pratidhwani is the first of its kind initiative in Northeast India, where a team of expertly trained professionals from multidisciplinary fields have come together to provide the most comprehensive and compassionate service at every step of your child’s Cochlear implant journey. A Cochlear Implant (CI) can help a child with a significant hearing loss hear well enough to develop speech and language skills comparable to their age-matched peers. However, this sophisticated technology truly becomes a life-changing device only with dedicated long-term engagement of the recipient, caregivers and trained professionals.
The Cochlear Implant program at Pratidhwani is designed to support and empower every CI recipient and their parents with the tools to not only learn to communicate, but to become integrated in the mainstream society as independent members.
