Description des services:
|
All newborns in hospital and community settings will receive a universal hearing screening as part of the Infant Hearing Program
Hearing screenings identify infants who should have more in-depth testing for hearing loss as early as possible and are only provided for infants under the age of two months
Early detection and intervention are critical for a child’s language and literacy development
The two components to the program are:
- Hearing Screen: Screening a baby’s hearing accurately measures the ear’s or brain’s response to soft sounds played in the baby’s ear and, if needed, may use small stickers placed on the baby’s head. The technology used for the hearing screen is safe and will not hurt the baby
- Risk Factor Screen: Using the same sample collected by the hospital or midwife for the newborn blood spot screening, Newborn Screening Ontario will also complete a risk factor screen to see if the baby is at higher risk for hearing loss
