[quote=Anonymous]HI, I am OP and back again .... and still trying to figure out if an assistive listening device would be helpful to my DC. We are in between IEP screening and final eligibility evaluation. DC does not have an APD or CAPD diagnosis from an audiologist (DC passed the audiology tests). But, language and neuropsych testing shows a problem with auditory comprehension, mixed expressive receptive language disorder and mild inattentive ADD, all of which combine to make auditory attention and comprehension difficult overall. The neuropsych will recommend a trial with a FM tuner system. So, now I'm wondering if there are other people out there who have FM tuner/assistive listening devices for kids without a formal auditory processing disorder diagnosis from an audiologist? If so, what kind of specialist recommended the FM tuner? Has it been helpful? If you're in MCPS, is it difficult to get an assistive listening device for a non-APD diagnosis? [/quote]
