Paediatric Audiologist

A Paediatric Audiologist assesses and treats hearing and balance disorders in children. You might work in a hospital, clinic, or specialised paediatric facility. Paediatric Audiologists use specialised equipment to conduct hearing tests and diagnose issues, providing treatment plans and fitting hearing aids when necessary. You’ll work closely with children and their families to monitor hearing health and ensure that developmental milestones are met.

Paediatric Audiologists play a crucial role in the early detection and management of hearing problems in children. You’ll need to be patient, empathetic, and skilled in communicating with both children and their parents. Collaborating with other healthcare professionals, you’ll support families in navigating their child’s hearing care journey.
