Early access to sound is the foundation for the development of spoken language in children with hearing loss.
This presentation examines the interrelated role of audiology within the philosophy of audiological verbal therapy (AVT), and highlights the critical importance of a collaborative, family-centered approach to care.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how early and targeted audiological intervention—through early diagnosis, hearing technology, and ongoing device support—directly supports AVT goals.
Using clinical examples and evidence-based practices, the presentation will demonstrate how collaboration among audiologists, hearing and speech therapists, educators, other allied professionals, and families promotes optimal hearing and speech outcomes.
Participants will gain strategies and useful ideas for strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration.
