We're running a Q&A with Phonak, the world's leading manufacturer of hearing instruments and a team of leading experts in paediatric hearing care to answer your questions on hearing loss in children and how to provide them with the best possible care and support.
Do you have to repeat yourself regularly and are concerned it might be because your child has a hearing loss? Or has your son or daughter already been diagnosed with a hearing loss but still struggles to hear in some situations despite using hearing aids?
Whether you want to establish if there's a problem with your child's hearing, or you're keen to understand how to provide further support to a child that’s already been diagnosed with hearing loss, our experts are here to help.
This is to mark the launch of a groundbreaking new hearing device, so we've teamed up with a panel of experts that lead the way in paediatric hearing care to answer any questions you might have on children with hearing loss.
The futuristic wireless 'Roger' device, which looks like a gadget worthy of James Bond, can help those with hearing difficulties to hear and understand more, particularly speech in noisy environments and over distance. Launched by Phonak, the revolutionary Roger device promises to improve the learning and development of 45,000 youngsters in the UK who are living with hearing loss.
Our panel of leading experts:
• Claire Benton, Clinical Lead for Paediatric Audiology within Nottingham Audiology Services
• Tony Murphy, Wireless Communications Specialist at Phonak UK. Tony is the go-to guy when it comes to wireless technology. He’ll answer any technical questions about Roger and how it works
• Frank Quinn, whose 7-year-old sons were the first children to be fitted with Roger in the UK. Frank will provide first-hand experience of the technology and how it has helped aid the learning and development of his children
