SPEECH
AND HEARING CHECKLIST
Even
if a hearing loss was not detected during your child’s infant screening,
it is important to continually monitor speech and language development
in order to identify a potential later loss as soon as possible.
Early detection is crucial because undetected hearing loss has a
direct effect on the development of speech and language in young
children. The Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf
and Hard of Hearing has developed a helpful checklist
that will help you to detect any hearing or speech problems in your
child at a very young age.
