Your baby’s first hearing test is often done at a hospital before your release. If your baby failed the hearing test, we can do a follow up and help direct you to a hearing specialist if needed.
If your baby didn’t get a hearing test at a hospital or you are having concerns about your child’s hearing we can evaluate for hearing loss. Detection within the first few months can be critical to overcoming any learning challenges and lifelong difficulty associated with hearing loss.
HFP has gone the extra mile to have the technology to do Newborn hearing screening. This is rare outside of specialist offices or the hospital.
Careful, patient screening at check ups for school aged children can detect problems that can have a profound effect on school performance.
Follow your instincts for protecting your baby’s hearing, and feel free to ask for our advice.
