Abstract
This Protocol addresses the provision of amplification (hereafter: 'Amplification') to infants and pre-school children who are receiving services from the Ontario Infant Hearing Program (IHP). Providing amplification includes the process of prescribing a hearing aid based on appropriate assessment information, verification that the specified acoustical performance targets have been achieved, fitting the device on the child, and evaluation of device effectiveness in daily life.
