Steady check-ins keep services responsive as a child grows and a family's needs shift. Use this checklist at each IFSP review, or at least once a quarter, to track progress for a Deaf or hard of hearing child in a birth-to-three program. It covers updated language levels, hearing technology and audiology, service delivery including any gaps and whether visits happen at home, in a center, in the community, or by telehealth (video visits), family engagement and confidence, and any access or equity barriers. Staff collect it and directors roll it up, so patterns and service gaps surface early.
