CHILDREN AND HEARING LOSS

A child’s development depends fundamentally on his ability to hear. Children learn how to speak by listening to others and then they communicate themselves. Healthy hearing helps your child tackle life’s challenges and opportunities, at home and at school.

What do you do if your child is hard of hearing? If you have concerns about your child’s hearing, make an appointment for an audiological (hearing) assessment. This assessment will determine whether, and to what extent, a hearing loss is present. No child is too young to have his hearing checked. With the modern technologies, even newborn babies can be examined for hearing loss.

With the latest technology, this early diagnosis gives you and your child the chance to compensate the hearing loss. The success of numerous forms of treatment for children prove that if the child has optimal hearing he/she is likely to have better opportunities to reach his/her potential.
