Trouble-free travel
Traveling with a cochlear implant is easy, but its important to plan ahead. Make sure you know where you can go for help. Before you leave, visit Find a Clinic to find worldwide Nucleus clinic locations.
Also, ask your audiologist for a paper copy of your current MAP(s). Make sure to bring the copy on your trip. If for some reason your implant needs to be programmed while you’re away, just visit, or call a Nucleus clinic with your MAP copy in hand. If you don’t have a copy with you, don’t worry. The clinic can still program the implant. But it may take you a little time to adjust to the new MAP.
