Resources for Establishing and Operating Universal Newborn Hearing Screening Programs
In helping many of these hospitals, we have developed some resources to aid in the establishment and operation of UNHS programs. Additionally, we maintain early hearing detection and intervention (including UNHS) information about U.S. states, territories and commonwealths. You can find these resources and information below.
