FM Requests Because nothing fixes something like an FM system
We have a new student with hearing aids ….. • Let’s get an FM!
Sam is easily distracted …. • Let’s get an FM!
Austin’s mom brought in a prescription for an FM system …. • Let’s get an FM!
Rachel’s Benchmark scores are really low …. • Let’s get an FM!
Emily can’t focus to save her life …. • Let’s get an FM!
We’ve tried everything and Josh is still a mess …. • Let’s get an FM!
Natalie hit Sophia …. • Let’s get an FM!
OK. What’s the Deal with FMs? • They’re awesome • They work really well for some kids • They really don’t make a difference for others
How do I sign up for the “awesome” experience? • Complete an AT Consideration Guide • Student has a hearing loss? Send to Julie Johnston at Live Oak with a copy of the audiogram • Student does not have a hearing loss? Send to Viki Johnson at Deep Wood and Julie Johnston at Live Oak
AT Consideration Guide • Identify specific areas you want to target with the use of the FM system • These targeted areas will be revisited at the end of a thirty day trial
How do we know which FM to request? • You don’t know how until you are an audiologist • Easy Listener • Toteable • Direct Connect • It’s prescriptive
Our Goal …. • Have the right equipment on the right kids • Make sure the FM is accomplishing what we want
