Are We the Right Fit for Your Child?
Even when a child has normal hearing, they may still face challenges with listening and processing information. This is referred to as auditory processing difficulties/disorder (APD). APD can affect a child’s ability to learn, follow directions, read, engage in conversation, and reach their full potential. Common signs include:
Struggles to hear in background noise
Mishears or misunderstands what is being said
Cannot remember longer instructions
Difficulty concentrating unless it is very quiet in the room
Difficulty understanding accents and cannot follow fast speech
Often daydreams
Becomes unsettled at school
Dislikes speaking on the phone
The NHS estimates that as many as one in 20 children may have some degree of auditory processing difficulty. Once diagnosed, APD can be managed through auditory training, remote microphone systems, classroom accommodations, additional support, and other strategies.
PLEASE NOTE THAT BEFORE CARRYING OUT AN APD DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT YOU WILL NEED TO FIRST ATTEND FOR A FULL DIAGNOSTIC HEARING ASSESSMENT TO RULE OUT HEARING LOSS AND OTHER CAUSES OF LISTENING DIFFICULTIES.
