KidScreen

KidScreen offers hearing, vision speech, language and learning screenings and referrals to promote early identification of communication and learning problems and to encourage follow-up therapy treatments and post-screening medical referral. KidScreen is helping ensure that Denver and Colorado Springs-area children, ages 7 months through high school, are getting the comprehensive communication services they need. A critical step in helping a child reach their learning potential is the screening process to assure that your child's skill levels are on the right track towards maximizing learning!

Vision, hearing and speech screenings are not routinely available to all children through their childcare center or school. Children and society benefit from more comprehensive screening and therapy services than typically takes place during well-child check-ups. That's where KidScreen comes in! We screen over 5,000 children a year in educational facilities located in Denver and Colorado Springs. We also offer screenings in our clinical offices located at 4280 Hale Parkway in Denver.

Vision

Vision is more than 20/20 eyesight. Vision is a skill like learning to walk or to talk that should not be left to chance. Passive visual activities such as watching television, video and computer screens do not encourage proper vision development to cope with reading and writing tasks at the kindergarten and first grade levels.

Hearing

Children learn from listening to other people talk. Good hearing in the first years of life is essential for speech and language development.

Basic Screening

Includes vision, hearing and speech screening. For all ages.

Basic Plus Screening

Includes Basic Screening above, plus language development, motor skills and pre-academic screening. For ages 2 through 5.
