Can a audiologist work indipendely or are they supervised?

Audiologists can work independently, as they are licensed healthcare professionals who can assess, diagnose, and treat hearing and balance disorders. They often operate their own practices or work in various settings such as hospitals, clinics, and schools without direct supervision. However, they may collaborate with other healthcare providers and specialists to ensure comprehensive patient care. Supervision may be more common for audiology students or those in residency programs, but licensed audiologists typically have the autonomy to practice independently.
