Kansas City

Programs

The Kansas City Campus is pleased to partner with local professional groups such as MidWest Ear Institute, University of Kansas Medical Center and Children's Mercy Hospital for audiologic services. On-site cochlear implant mapping is available through a pilot program at the school through MidWest Ear Institute.

Cochlear implants offer deaf individuals new auditory access to sounds that were previously unavailable to them through conventional and digital hearing aids. The availability of post-surgical rehabilitation programming for newly implanted individuals is essential. Our staff has the expertise to assist children and adults in learning to decode new sounds and to use them for learning language and monitoring speech.

All children enrolled in the academic program receive thirty minutes of individual speech-language therapy daily. Individual speech-language therapy is available on an outpatient basis for children and adults with hearing loss.
