Diagnosing hearing loss in children.
Hearing loss can have a dramatic effect on a child's development and language acquiring abilities, and can also pose significant strain on parents and siblings. It is therefore important that health visitors and nurses are aware of the signs of hearing loss in very young children, and understand what diagnostic and treatment options are available. The author describes what these options are.
