ErinoakKids is the lead agency for Ontario’s Infant Hearing Program (IHP) in the Central West Region, which includes Halton, Peel, Waterloo, Wellington, and Dufferin. The Infant Hearing Program is based on a foundation of early detection of hearing loss through universal access to universal newborn hearing screening. More than 27,000 newborns access hearing screening in the region each year. Of those, about 4 in 1,000 will be born with – or will acquire in early childhood – permanent hearing loss. Early detection of hearing loss and early intervention through access to a range of services including ongoing audiology, social work, and spoken or signed language development services that are in place before the child’s first birthday set the stage for optimal outcomes. Travel between the ErinoakKids sites may be required.
All IHP audiologists must complete training in required protocols provided through the Ministry of Children and Youth Services Infant Hearing Program. Training will be provided as part of employment.
