RCI CRE Programme at SAIMS Focuses on Cochlear Implant Care

Sri Aurobindo University, Indore through Sri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences (SAIMS) held the RCI Continuing Rehabilitation Education (CRE) Programme called Cochlear Implant: Driving Evidence-Based Results. This special academic programme provided a learning opportunity for professionals to gain knowledge about implant technology, clinical decision-making and rehabilitation methods.
The programme was held from 21 to 25 September 2026. It had 36 participants who took part in the learning experience. The sessions included topics, like cochlear candidacy, new technologies, radiological assessment, programming and rehabilitation. Participants gained a view of the entire journey involved in cochlear implant management.
Expert led sessions were part of the programme. Expert led sessions let participants dive into concepts and practical approaches in the field. Case discussions encouraged participants to reason by linking theory with clinical scenarios. Hands on programming activities offered participants experience in cochlear implant programming and related processes.
The programme highlighted the importance of evidence-based care and care that focuses on the person receiving it. It made clear that medical decisions should be based on knowledge. At the time those decisions must take into account the unique needs of each patient. This way of thinking is especially important, in rehabilitation services. In these services assessment, technology, programming and rehabilitation must all work together. When they work together can meaningful results be achieved.
For Sri Aurobindo University initiatives like the RCI CRE programme help build a culture of education and specialised healthcare learning. These programmes also promote knowledge exchange between experts and participants supporting the development of updated skills and modern practices.
The programme demonstrated the University commitment, to advancing healthcare education through engagement, practical learning and professional development. It also contributed to building an skilled healthcare community.
