Central Auditory Processing Disorder Assessment | Print |  E-mail

Central Auditory Processing problems can occur in adults or more commonly in children. Often a standard hearing test will produce normal results and yet the individual continues to feel they have difficulty with processing auditory information particularly in a noisy environment such as a classroom.

This can have a significant impact on academic success. A child may:

  • be inattentive or easily distracted
  • have difficulty following instructions
  • show reading and spelling difficulties
  • have problems remembering information
  • display poor social skills

What we offer

Through a series of speech tests our Audiologist can assess the function of the central auditory system and provide effective management solutions should a disorder be diagnosed. Solutions may include auditory training sessions with our Speech Pathologist, the use of classroom FM systems or software based auditory training using the Fast ForWord program.
