One of three volumes (the others are on diagnosis and treatment), this volume presents clearly organized, practical guidelines for the day-to-day operation of clinics and private practice. The first section describes the principles of practice management, with chapters on quality control, human resources, and marketing. The second section discusses applications that include outcome measures and evidence-based practice, infection control, and supervision. The final section provides applications, including writing a business plan and practice accounting. The codes of ethics and scopes of practice of the American Academy of Audiology, the Academy of Doctors of Audiology, and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association are included.
