Cerebral Palsy and Hearing Loss

Children with cerebral palsy may develop substantial problems with important sensory abilities, such as hearing. Hearing loss can dramatically impact a child’s life, leaving them unable to enjoy many of the same experiences their peers enjoy. If hearing loss is significant enough, a child may have problems developing their language skills and may have to adjust to a life of complete hearing impairment.

If a physician’s mistakes before, during, or after delivery have caused your child to develop cerebral palsy, there may be legal options available to pursue compensation for disability treatment and management. For a free consultation regarding your rights and options as the parents of an injured child, contact a cerebral palsy attorney of the Driscoll Firm, today at (800) 900-7704.

Complications from Hearing Loss

Hearing loss can have a devastating effect on a child’s development, leaving them with life-long obstacles to overcome. Some of the complications associated with this disability may include the following:

  • Language development problems
  • Difficulty in pursuing certain hobbies or, later in life, certain careers
  • Additional stress and emotional strain on a child
  • The necessity to modify a home to accommodate for this disability
  • Loss of enjoyment or quality of life due to the disability

Sustaining these and other problems as a result of cerebral palsy and hearing loss can dramatically affect a person and their family.
