Mission Statement:
ISHAA are dedicated to maintaining exceptionally high standards of quality professional hearing care and aftercare by ensuring that the standards of practice are maintained by continuous professional development. In doing so the most recent advances in hearing aid hearing aid technology are provided thereby preserving, protecting and enhancing hearing and further more upholding the highest professional and ethical standards.
While adoption of the best practice guidelines is currently not mandatory, compliance with the guidelines by a service denotes that the service has met the minimum requirement for best practice. We have a document, the Best Practice Guidelines for Provision of Hearing Aid Services for Adults in Ireland, that has been devised by a committee comprised of representatives from Health Services Executive (HSE) Integrated Audiology Programme, Irish Society of Hearing Aid Audiologists (ISHAA), Irish Academy of Audiology (IAA) and Deaf Hear. The Chair and secretariat of the committee were provided by Health Services Executive.
ISHAA has represented Clinical and Diagnostic Hearing Aid Audiologists working in the private audiology sector across Ireland since 1987.
Your ISHAA Registered and Qualified Hearing Aid Audiologist can advise you on the most appropriate hearing solution to suit your individual need and lifestyle.
As an organisation ISHAA has a responsibility to advise members and to do what we can to stop the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid-19). Members will have undertaken all recommended precautions in relation to the health and safety of themselves and their clients in order to remain healthy in the context of this pandemic.
