Audiologists are health care professionals who identify, assess and manage disorders of hearing, balance and other neural systems. This field is especially important when it comes to early intervention. By employing various testing strategies, audiologists aim to determine whether someone has normal sensitivity to sounds. Their goal in children is to identify hearing loss by 3 months of age. Since infants cannot say when they hear things, audiologists using a system called an ABR. This test tells them how the brain participates to sound.

If a hearing issue is detected, they have three main options. The first one is hearing aids, the most common device. Second is therapeutic intervention, which is learning to listen better. Third option is creating an education support foundation for the parents.
