Our second visit to ASHIS was on 2nd Nov. We had organized a talk with Dr. Prem.
Everybody was busy and excited. A pretty large number of parents, about 100 of
them, were assembled in the hall.
Dr. Prem set up a ppt and explained all the
necessary topics with figures, diagrams, and bullet points with the help of a
projector, so the parents who are uneducated also got a really clear picture of
how things looked like. He explained about the different ways a person can get
deaf, by birth or due to other problems. He also explained about the different
kinds and costs of hearing aids .He gave a great deal of explicit information
of these. He also talked a great deal about the merits and demerits cochlear implantation.
After the talk ,there was the interactive session where the parents or teachers
were free to ask questions, doubts and other things about this topic.
He
patiently looked into each and every parent giving them suggestions for
different kinds of problems that they had. He also went through all the
prescriptions carefully and explained stuffs to them. He was presented with a momento
on behalf of our Amrita which he accepted with a gleaming smile.
The school had
almost everything but lacked speech therapists. Dr. Prem arranged for that too
by suggesting ASHIS for his students as an internship spot. The ASHIS
authorities were extremely very grateful.
We received a very positive feedback
from all the parents, teachers and the authorities of ASHIS.
