**Presentation Date:** 03 November 2023

**Duration:** 1:32:17

**Return to:** [AuDacity Archive](https://www.audiologist.org/audacity-archive)

This panel discussion will focus on integrating vestibular screening and assessment into a private audiology practice. Panelists will discuss the potential scope and available options that can be provided both with and without extensive vestibular test equipment, including bedside evaluation, how to operationalize this within a practice, and the value of these service to your patients, referral sources, community, and practice.

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

1. Define what constitutes a bedside assessment and the potential role of the audiologist
2. List the potential screening and diagnostic procedures that can be performed without extensive vestibular test equipment
3. Describe the steps required to implement vestibular screening and assessment in an audiology private practice
