Severe to profound hearing loss is costly to society largely due to reduced productivity and lower earnings. #Cochlearimplants reduce lifetime costs and open up opportunities for language, education & quality of life. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @WileyGlobal

Every caring adult in a child’s life is a BRAIN BUILDER! @DrDanaSuskind from @TMW3Ts shares the easy blueprint - The Three Ts! Watch to be the best brain builder for the children in your life!
Research has shown that talking with a baby from day 1 helps form neural connections & networks necessary to develop listening, talking, literacy, and other important life skills. Learn how parents can become the ultimate brain builder for little ones: bit.ly/49fN8fS

It was my honor to partner with @hearingfirst to help spread the word about the power of parents as architects of babies' brains. Nurturing talk and interaction—starting on day one—are key to healthy development. Your baby literally needs your words ❤️ bit.ly/3xhmzK3
