Hearing (audiometry) services assist with early identification of ear disease and hearing impairment. Audiometry can make referrals to other health professionals and educators. Hearing checks are available from 9 months of age.
Children aged 9 months – 12 years.
Telephone the Child Health Information Link (CHIL) on 9562 5400 (select option 2).
Our services are provided in Community Health Centres in Sydney Local Health District.
Please bring your child’s Blue Book (Personal Health Record).
When you arrive to the Community Health Centre you will be greeted by the receptionist. This person will let your Audiometry Nurse know that you have arrived.
During the appointment, your Audiometry Nurse will have a chat with you about your child’s health and explain the hearing test. Then they will test your child’s hearing.
After your child’s test is completed your Audiometry Nurse will talk to you about the results.
You will meet your Audiometry Nurse who has qualifications in Audiometry Nursing.
Our nurses are registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia. For more information visit https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/
