The audiologist referred Kairi to an early intervention program in our area.
"Early Intervention/Early Childhood Special Education (EI/ECSE) provides programs and services for children with disabilities from birth to kindergarten. Behavioral Programs encompass school age programs and staff as well as a mental health team. Related Services encompass programs and staff in the following disciplines: augmentative communication/assistive technology, autism, deaf/hard of hearing, nurses, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language, & vision."
NW Regional was assigned to Kairi. The adviser comes to our home once a week to monitor Kairi's physical and mental development. Basically she is making sure that Kairi is developing in a normal way other than her hearing impairment. The adviser reports her findings to NW Regional and to the Washington County school district. The main purpose of these visits is to inform the school district and prepare us, the parents, for Kairi's entry into school.
This is her story
This is the story of Kairi Yen Nguyen. Kairi was born with severe/total hearing impairment. I am keeping this web log for her so that she and others can share in the journey that her life will have to take with this condition.
