| Description: | This report examines the case for developing a national hearing screening service for babies born in
Ireland, and was commissioned by the Health Board CEOs, arising out of a previous report, Best
Health for Children which considered wider issues in relation to child health. This service would
enable the average time between detection of hearing loss and starting treatment to be cut by months
and in some cases years, at a crucial time in the development of hearing and speech. |
