    • Abstract:
      The article discusses how audiologists can help parents to understand hearing loss information they may learn through genetic evaluation and testing. Audiologists not only serve as referral sources, but they also provide basic information to families to help them become comfortable with the genetic evaluation, counseling, and testing process. The audiologist might also recommend the family return to the genetics counselor if there is confusion or other issues.
