Pediatric evaluation
(9 months – 4 years)
Children are assessed by a team of two audiologists who use visual reinforcement techniques or play based on the age of the child. In the audiometric booth, the child is accompanied by a parent and an audiologist. The results of the evaluation are explained directly after this one. A copy of the report is given to the parents on the day of the assessment and another is sent to the referent.

In this regard, a Canadian coalition has formed. For more information, visit the Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology Canada (OAC) website: www.oac-sac.ca
