Audiology: A role worth hearing about

Careers advice
Hearing care specialists are working ever closer with optical staff and enjoy a fulfilling career option. Jeet Saimbi, who has more than four decades’ experience at Scrivens, explains more to Joe Ayling

Jeet Saimbi, professional services director at Scrivens Opticians & Hearing Care, welcomes Optician to the company’s practice in Willenhall to discuss community services and a new NHS England framework for hearing care.

She is an experienced contact lens optician at Scrivens, which competes with Boots, Specsavers and the Outside Clinic in offering optical and hearing services under one roof, delivered by audiologists, hearing aid dispensers and hearing care assistants.

Saimbi explains how caring for both of these senses within the same practice is a natural progression.
