Answer 3

Look up commission for handicap children.  I'm not suggesting your child is handicap but this facility does hearing screenings for children and they are very supportive and want parents to be involved in care.  Hope this helps you.

Answer 4

If your child has a hearing problem you should get the services of a range of people: first at the hospital, audiologist, technicians, consultant. You should have a teracher of the deaf who can give you advice and maybe there's a specialist social worker for the deaf in your area (not everyone has these) who can advise you on benefits etc. some Local Authorities have parent befrienders and all of them have Parent Partnership schemes, they can help especially with decisions about school, but one of the best places to go for advice is the NDCS National Deaf Children's Society, their advice is free and wide ranging and they're just there to support deaf children and their families.  Good luck
