What is this document?
This leaflet is for parents or carers of children younger than 12 years who have glue ear with hearing loss. You can go through it and use it to help you talk to your child’s care team. Your child’s care team includes people from different health professions and specialties who help to manage your child’s glue ear. For example, audiologists, surgeons and other ear specialists.
There are some sections for you to fill in if you wish. You do not have to
do this, but it might help you think about things more clearly or remind
you of what you want to talk about with your child’s care team. It will also help them understand what is important to you and your child.
This decision aid can only be a guide because every child’s situation is
different.
