A hearing screening is often the first step to identifying if there is something going on with your little ones hearing.
➡️Newborn babies have their first hearing screen within 4 days of birth - this is called an otoacoustic emission (OAE) or an auditory brainstorm response (ABR)
➡️Hearing screenings usually begin during the first (reception) year of Primary School.
➡️But if you have concerns about your child’s hearing, don’t wait! Talk to your doctor or an audiologist today.
➡️Early identification of hearing loss is key to make sure your little one gets the support they need in order to thrive!
