What Are Hearing Aids?
Cincinnati Children’s works with hearing aid companies that focus on pediatric hearing devices. When hearing aids are needed, we look at the type of hearing aid that is best for that child. Each hearing aid is picked and programmed to meet their needs. After picking a hearing aid, we make sure the device works well with the latest technology. We make sure your child’s hearing aid is comfortable and best fit to their age and hearing loss. Our main goal is to help your child hear voices and sounds that increase communication.
Cincinnati Children’s will repair hearing devices or help with problems at the following locations: Burnet campus (main hospital), 3430 Burnet, Outpatient Northern Kentucky, Outpatient Eastgate, Outpatient Mason, Liberty Township, and Green Township locations. Our audiologists can help with accessories that pair with hearing aids. This includes FM systems and bluetooth.
If our team and your family decide that hearing aids will help your child, we will guide you through the evaluation and fitting process.
Please know that a doctor’s order is needed by state law before getting and using hearing aids.
