A mum says her daughter, aged three, has developmental delays after a hearing misdiagnosis.
Natalie Brewell said her daughter "got hearing aids at quite an older age than she should have"A mum whose three-year-old daughter was undiagnosed with hearing difficulties has had an apology from an NHS hospital.She said: "We were quite upset. The whole family was quite shocked."
Ms Brewell was told the results were inconclusive and Luna had to be rebooked for more auditory brainstem response tests. "It was just a bit of a shock to realise it wasn't Covid that had caused the delays... [it was] something wrong within the audiology department," said Ms Brewell. "I asked how many families had been affected at that hospital. They told me there were 37 families and told me a handful more hospitals had failed families in their testing," said the mum.
Mrs Brewell said she had become Luna's full-time carer because of the delay getting hearing aids, and her daughter now had an 18-month development delay behind her peers in terms of her speech and other learning."She is so far behind that it worries me for when she starts school next year."
