Description des services:
|
Hearing loss can affect the development of speech and language * the Infant Hearing Program (IHP) provides language intervention services for children already registered with the IHP and identified with a permanent hearing loss
There are two language development options available:
Children will develop one language, either spoken or signed, to the best of their ability by the time they enter school
Language Development Options- Spoken Language Services
Spoken language involves listening to the spoken language of others and learning to use speech sounds, words and sentences to communicate. Both English and French are the spoken languages supported by the IHP. A Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) works with the child to help develop spoken language. The SLP will also teach parents or caregivers strategies to use to help the child develop spoken language - Signed Language Services
Signed language combines hand shapes, face movements, body movements and other grammatical features to form signs and sentences. American Sign Language (ASL) and Langue des signes québécoise (LSQ) are the signed languages supported by the IHP
An ASL/LSQ Consultant will work with the child to help develop signed language and teach parents and caregivers strategies to use to help the child develop signed language
