Services offered to children with hearing loss and their families at the Guidance and Research Center and problems encountered

Öz

This study aimed to investigate the services provided to children with hearing loss aged 0-8 and their families at the Guidance and Research Center (GRC) and identify the problems encountered in providing these services. This study was designed as a comparative case study. In this study, 23 personnel from two different GRCs, along with 14 parents of children with hearing loss who had applied to the GRCs, participated. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, physical and social observations, researcher diaries, documents, and artifacts. The data were analyzed descriptively and inductively. The findings were categorized into general problems similar to those encountered in GRCs in Türkiye, as well as problems that differed across the research environments. Problems faced in services provided to children with hearing loss and their families in GRCs throughout Türkiye included these children's families having little contact with GRCs, particularly children aged 0-36 months not being followed up by GRCs in rehabilitation centers, limited educational assessment for children with hearing loss at GRCs, failure to consider the goals recommended for the child by GRCs as a result of educational assessment in different educational institutions, and limited authority of GRCs according to their varying responsibilities. Challenges specific to each GRC also emerged, including lack of suitable physical conditions in each GRC, the shortage of personnel capable of working with diverse special needs groups, and the regional geography served by each GRC. To minimize these problems, it was determined that there is a need for legal regulations that more clearly define the responsibilities of GRCs, improve personnel qualifications, and standardize GRC structures throughout the country, especially to improve the qualifications of personnel working with children with special needs in early childhood.
