Does My Child Have Hearing Loss? | I Hear You, Ep 17

Описание: Hearing difficulties are most often associated with adults, but children can experience them as well. And depending on their age, most children may not be able to express that something is wrong. Plus, it may never cross your mind that certain behavioral issues could actually be connected to their hearing. Dr. Stacy Chalmers, Au.D. shares several signs that might give parents & grandparents a reason to get their child's hearing tested.

Please Note: For younger children, or for children who may not yet be able to complete this type of screening successfully, we recommend a comprehensive diagnostic hearing evaluation. Our audiologists provide diagnostic testing for children of all ages, including infants and toddlers, using age-appropriate methods that give more detailed and reliable information. If you are unsure whether a free screening or a diagnostic test is the best fit for your child, our team will be happy to guide you.

Living with hearing loss isn’t just about sound, it’s about connection. When you find yourself asking people to repeat themselves, turning up the volume more than usual, or quietly withdrawing from conversations, it can feel frustrating, isolating, and even discouraging. If you’ve started to wonder, “Is this normal?” or “Is it time to get this checked out?” — you’re in the right place.

At Bloomington-Normal Audiology, we understand that hearing care is personal. That’s why we believe in listening first, to your concerns, your questions, your lifestyle, and your goals. As a team of dedicated female doctors of audiology, we bring not only clinical excellence, but also a warm, patient-focused approach to every interaction. Your hearing story is unique, and it deserves to be treated with understanding, professionalism, and care.

We created the “I Hear You” Playlist to help you begin this journey with clarity and confidence. This doctor-driven video series features real, compassionate answers to the questions we hear every day, presented in a thoughtful, approachable format that makes information accessible and easy to understand.

If you’re ready to move from uncertainty to understanding, from struggling to thriving, we invite you to begin with us.
