Its Newborn Screening Awareness Month! Did you know that all Louisiana babies are required to have a newborn hearing screening? Since the very first day they are born, babies start learning by listening and interacting with the sounds and voices around them. But, when a baby is born with hearing loss, many sounds and voices are not heard, and the childs speech and language development can be delayed. The Louisiana Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (LA EHDI) Program works to ensure that all infants who are deaf or hard of hearing can achieve their maximum potential through early screening, detection and intervention.
