Children with hearing loss
In addition to seeing a physician for medical
evaluation, a child with a hearing loss
should be directed to an audiologist for
evaluation and rehabilitation, since hearing
loss may cause problems in language
development and educational and social
growth of a child. An audiologist is qualified
by training and experience to assist in the
evaluation and rehabilitation of a child
with a hearing loss. If the user is an infant,
small child, or person of mental incapacity,
it is recommended that the hearing aid be
modified with a tamper-resistant battery
compartment.
