Audiology

Audiology services are provided by four licensed educational audiologists. Services consist of early detection/intervention, audiological evaluation, academic/classroom support and community outreach/leadership.

Testing is performed primarily at our Greenbush facility, as well as in schools and home-based settings. In keeping with our goal of early detection of hearing loss before three months of age and early intervention before six months, audiological evaluation and support services are available in conjunction with other early childhood programs serving the birth to three population. Each year, approximately 1500 children from birth to 21 years are seen for audiological testing. Children are referred by school nurses, teachers/related school personnel, physicians, and hospitals as well as other community agencies. Parents are encouraged to schedule an appointment if they have hearing concerns.

Home-based services are provided to families of deaf and hard of hearing infants and toddlers, and consist of parent education and audiological support.
