Following on the heels of research from John’s Hopkins, dementia, cognition, and cognitive screenings are hot topics in audiology. Audiologists need guidance on our role in the cognitive screening process and how to best integrate this research into their daily clinical practice. This panel will discuss cognitive screening and how audiologists can ethically and successfully integrate tools and approaches for the benefit of these patients.

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

1. Define dementia and cognitive decline
2. Describe the role of the audiologist in cognition and cognitive screening
3. Identify effective tools for cognitive screening
4. Describe how to use the screening information for referral, care plan creation, device selection, and rehabilitation
