SUMMARY:BAA Webinar: Deaf Awareness in Healthcare – Turning Principles into Practice
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: \nLaura Turton\, Head of Audiology\, NHS Tayside \nJason Smalley\, Head of Audiology\, Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust \nThe recently published Guiding Principles of Deaf Awareness in Healthcare Settings for Adults from the British Society of Audiology sets out important principles to help healthcare professionals provide more accessible\, inclusive care for people who are deaf or have hearing loss. The guidance aims to support good practice across all healthcare settings and improve communication\, safety and patient experience. \nIn this webinar\, we will introduce the key principles behind the guidance and explore what they mean in everyday clinical practice. The session will highlight why Deaf awareness matters in healthcare\, the barriers people with hearing loss often encounter\, and the practical steps services can take to improve accessibility. \nWe will also share real-world examples of changes clinics can implement\, from communication strategies and environmental adjustments to service design approaches that help ensure patients with hearing loss can access care confidently and effectively. \nJoin us for a practical discussion on how audiology teams and healthcare services can translate guidance into meaningful action. \n*This webinar is for BAA members only*

SUMMARY:BAA Journal Club with the University of Southampton
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the third of our 2026 Journal Clubs with students from the University of Southampton. \nPresenters: Jasmin Bain\, Daisy Collas\, Jennifer Mansbridge\, Charlotte Dennett \nArticle for discussion: Adult client perspectives of barriers and facilitators to successfully communicating about listening needs and concerns during audiology appointments: a qualitative study \nAuthors: Zoe McNeice\, Dani Tomlin\, Barbra Timmer\, Camille E. Short & Karyn Galvin  \nThis paper investigates adult clients’ perspectives on the barriers and facilitators they experience when communicating about their listening needs and concerns with their audiologist during appointments. Through qualitative interviews with adults who have attended audiology consultations\, it identifies key factors\, such as the audiologist’s communication style\, demonstration of understanding\, therapeutic relationship\, clients’ awareness and personality\, and clinic operational practices\, that influence whether clients feel able to express their listening difficulties and concerns effectively.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second of our 2026 Journal Clubs with students from the University of Southampton. \nPresenters: Zubair Dawani\, Hanna Susic\, Amy Sullivan\, Yaqueen Al Amri \nArticle for discussion: Preference and Outcomes for Fast Versus Slow Compression in Hearing Aids for Older Adults: A Randomized Control Trial \nAuthors: Richard Windle\, Harvey Dillon\, and Antje Heinrich \nThis paper investigates older adults’ reported benefits and preferences for fast versus slow-acting compression settings in hearing aids\, using a single-blinded\, crossover randomised controlled trial in NHS audiology clinic attendees. It examines whether compression speed influences subjective preference\, objective speech understanding in quiet and noise\, and whether factors such as degree of hearing loss\, cognitive ability or prior hearing aid experience predict these preferences.

SUMMARY:The AIHHP 2025 Annual Hearing Expo
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Hearing Expo is built around three powerful and future-focused pillars: \nSustainability\, Inclusivity & Versatility. \nThese themes reflect the evolving priorities of hearing healthcare — from environmentally conscious practice and inclusive service delivery\, to the agility required to meet diverse client needs and thrive in a changing landscape. Guest speakers and exhibitors are invited to explore and reflect these values in their contributions\, helping to inspire and equip independent practitioners for the future. \nFollowing the success of the past two years; AIHHP’s eagerly awaited annual event will once again be OPEN TO ALL who have an interest in audiology. \nAnd for 2025\, everything will take place on Friday 28th November 2025 — a full day of learning\, discovery\, and networking — followed by the Golden Lobe Awards dinner and celebrations in the evening. \nAIHHP Members told us clearly that one concentrated day makes the Expo more accessible\, impactful\, and efficient. Here’s why: \n\nMaximum value\, zero dilution – All the educational sessions\, exhibitions\, and networking opportunities are packed into one powerful day. Nothing is lost — everything is gained.\nLess time away from patients and practice – A shorter commitment means you can benefit fully without stretching your clinic schedules.\nSimpler and more cost-effective – Travel and accommodation become easier\, cheaper\, and less disruptive.\nEnergy and focus – By concentrating everything into one day\, we ensure the programme is dynamic\, engaging\, and rewarding from start to finish.\n\nThe AIHHP Council is committed to making Friday an unmissable day — filled with inspiring speakers\, interactive workshops\, and valuable exhibition time — and of course\, culminating in our ever-popular Golden Lobe Awards in the evening. \nOne day\, one big impact — the perfect way to bring our profession together. \nThis year we are returning to The Oxford Belfry Hotel & Spa\, Milton Common\, Thame OX9 2JW \nThe event will kick off on Fri 28th November with registration from 08.00am – AIHHP Exec & Full members will then go into a members only meeting at 09.00-09.45am\, giving others plenty of time to catch up with all the hearing aid manufacturers and suppliers to the industry in the exhibition. \nThe AIHHP 2025 Hearing Expo ‘Welcome to All’ will take place after a morning tea break on Fri 28th November\, and we’re delighted to announce that Jono Lancaster will deliver the first keynote presentation at the 2025 AIHHP Hearing Expo!\nPlease view the agenda HERE!\nThe online booking system is now live!\nPLEASE BOOK HERE\nIf you are interested in receiving more information about exhibiting at this years’ hearing expo please email Stephanie Meli at events@aihhp.org or call 07704 880626.

It addresses common concerns in secondary rhinoplasty and offers strategies for nasal reconstruction in complex cases. Personal approaches to treating the deviated nose and congenital nasal deformities are shared\, with attention to the alar base and premaxilla. Additional sessions explore modern techniques such as dorsal preservation\, as well as the psychological considerations involved in rhinoplasty. The anatomy of the nasal tip and the use of powered instruments in surgery are also discussed. The program concludes with a panel discussion on challenging rhinoplasty cases. \nDay 2 \nDay 2 is designed to provide surgeons with a structured update on both foundational and advanced topics in sinonasal and anterior skull base surgery. The carefully curated programme covers essential areas including frontal sinus anatomy\, complications in FESS\, anosmia management\, biologics in refractory sinus disease\, and a detailed introduction to trans-sphenoidal and extended endoscopic skull base approaches. \nDelegates will benefit from the insights of an expert faculty comprising leading rhinologists and facial plastic surgeons\, sharing practical knowledge and case-based discussions. Both days will conclude with a panel session focused on challenging clinical scenarios\, encouraging interactive learning and expert-led problem-solving. \n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\nPlease see below the programme details. \nProgramme
