Cochlear Implants at Nemours-A child hears for the first time.

NEMOURS CHILDREN’S HEALTH SYSTEM | Watch as Guadalupe’s cochlear implant is turned on at Nemours Children’s Hospital in Orlando.
Guadalupe’s sweet smile marks the beginning of a life-changing journey to reach her full potential. Born with profound hearing loss, Guadalupe relied mostly on sign language and hearing aids to communicate. Today’s advanced cochlear implant technology and interventions allow children like Guadalupe to learn to recognize speech and develop language skills, starting as early as 12 months. It’ll take some time, but with the Nemours pediatric cochlear implant team by her side, Guadalupe will have the best chance to play, laugh and learn with friends.
