San Diego (619) 569-1937

Hearing screenings are available to all age groups: adults, children, and even

newborn infants!




San Diego (619) 569-1937

Many hospitals screen newborns during the hospital stay following birth.

Screening is easy, quick, and painless.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

A failed screening does not definitively diagnosis hearing loss in a newborn. Fluid

from the womb or middle ear fluid may create a false fail.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

A second screening may be given before leaving the hospital, or a follow-up with

an audiologist may be scheduled to confirm any screening results.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

Early identification of hearing loss is extremely important to reduce the

chance of delayed speech and language development.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) covers screening

for hearing loss.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

Contact your local public school or health department; free screenings and services

may be available to your child.




San Diego (619) 569-1937

Children and adults usually encounter screenings during public health testing

(e.g., school screenings, physician’s office, health fairs, and senior centers).




San Diego (619) 569-1937

After a failed screening, you should set up an appointment to have a more

thorough hearing evaluation completed. Call today!
