Program Spotlight: Little Ears Hearing Center
On September 1, Open Arms Children’s Health, the comprehensive
pediatric outpatient health center operated by Home of the Innocents,
purchased Little Ears Hearing Center.
Little Ears is the only facility in our region that specializes in childhood
hearing loss and related services. Offering audiologic evaluations,
amplification, hearing protection, early intervention and family support,
they join Open Arms’ already all-encompassing services: medical, dental,
audiology, psychology, psychiatry, occupational, speech and physical
therapies.
Susan Veech, Senior Vice President of Open Arms Children’s Health said,
“We are so excited to have Little Ears Hearing Center join our pediatric
health center. Our mission is to treat the whole child with the highest
quality of care. We are proud to add the only board-certified pediatric
audiologist in the state of Kentucky, Dr. Shelley Moats, to our team and
we’re thrilled that we will be able to expand our current hearing services
to all children in the community.”

Open Arms welcomes the staff and patients of Little Ears to their Market Street location. If your child or someone you know
is interested in this or any of Open Arms’ other services, call 502.596.1040.
