Hearing screening is typically conducted at several key stages:
1. Newborn Screening: All newborns should undergo a hearing screen before leaving the hospital. This is usually done within the first few days of life. 2. Infant and Toddler Screening: Additional screenings are recommended at well-child visits at 9 months, 18 months, and 24-30 months. 3. Preschool and School-Age Screening: Regular screenings are recommended during preschool years and periodically during the school years.
