If a hearing loss is detected, several intervention options are available. These may include:
Hearing Aids: These are electronic devices that amplify sound and are suitable for most types of hearing loss. They are custom-fitted and available in various styles.
Cochlear Implants: For children with severe hearing loss who do not benefit from hearing aids, cochlear implants may be an option. These devices bypass damaged parts of the ear and directly stimulate the auditory nerve.
Speech and Language Therapy: This is often recommended to help children develop effective communication skills. Therapy can be tailored to the child's specific needs and may involve exercises to improve articulation, language comprehension, and social communication.
