The Key to Speech Development

    The sense of hearing is the key to speech development. From infancy, children learn to imitate the sounds they hear, thereby developing their first words and phrases. Timely diagnosis and intervention are two interconnected concepts that work together to improve quality of life; an accurate diagnosis is essential for selecting the appropriate intervention. Hearing difficulties can lead to:

     
  • Delayed speech
  • Communication development issues
  • Auditory training
  • Vocabulary development
  • Articulation challenges
