Implantable devices
Cochlear Implants and Related Devices
For adults who receive limited benefit from conventional hearing aids, implantable hearing devices; including cochlear implants and bone conduction implants; may improve access to sound and support communication outcomes.
At Perth Ear Health, we provide end-to-end guidance through the implant pathway, offering continuity of care before and after surgery in collaboration with the broader implant team. This may include candidacy assessment, counselling, referral to an implant surgeon, pre-operative education, post-operative device support, mapping, troubleshooting, and ongoing auditory rehabilitation.
What We Offer
Implant candidacy assessment and tailored recommendations
Education and counselling for patients and families (expectations, process, and rehabilitation commitment)
Referral coordination to experienced implant surgeons and implant services
Pre-operative preparation and support
Post-operative follow-up and care coordination with the implant clinic
Ongoing rehabilitation support to optimise listening and communication outcomes
Who It’s For
Adults with severe-to-profound hearing loss who gain limited functional benefit from appropriately fitted hearing aids
Adults considering cochlear implantation or other implantable devices based on clinical assessment and specialist advice
Outcomes
A structured, supportive pathway to specialist implant assessment and potential implantation
Coordinated care across pre- and post-operative phases
Long-term rehabilitation support to maximise hearing function, communication participation, and quality of life
