What are Audiology Services?
Audiology services at JMCC help children and youth with hearing and ear health. Our team checks how well your child hears and makes sure their ears are working properly.
We do hearing tests, give advice about hearing aids or other devices, and support families in understanding their child’s hearing needs. Our goal is to help every child communicate and take part fully at home, school, and in the community.
Why Hearing Checks Are Important
Babies start learning language from the moment they’re born. If a baby has trouble hearing, it can affect how they learn to talk and understand others. That’s why it’s important to check a baby’s hearing as early as possible.
Infant Hearing Program
JMCC is a service provider for the Ontario Infant Hearing Program, which supports babies and young children in Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent who may have hearing loss. Referrals for the program are made through the lead agency Connections Early Years Family Centre.
