Unilateral
hearing loss
The introduction of newborn hearing screening has highlighted
the prevalence of unilateral hearing loss in babies
and the need for information and support for the parents
of these babies. Aussie Deaf Kids is attempting to gather
a wide variety of information for parents on the subject.
If you know of other good quality and reliable information
which may be useful to parents of children with a unilateral
loss, we would be grateful if you would email
us.
