Hearing impairment is one of the important components of the universe of all the disabilities. Compromised hearing health varies in its type and severity. Increasing prevalence of hearing impairment, globally and in India, is due to an increase in the aging population related to improved longevity, environmental reasons like chronic exposure to rising noise pollution and to that of ototoxic substances. Impact of hearing impairment to any age group– children, adolescents and young or old persons has life-time adverse consequences influencing education, job opportunities, socialization and quality of life. While visual disability attracts sympathy from society, hearing impairment more often causes societal-ridicule. Community awareness, parental education, improved screening programs for hearing health at all levels of health care with established network for appropriate referral are the need of the hour. Hearing impairment is considered as a disability and the person/s affected can avail the assistance from the ADIP scheme of the Government of India provided he/she has a disability certificate that depends on the severity of the hearing impairment.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a bane to the paediatric population in affecting their social, physical, emotional and behavioural state of mind. Children from all the age groups were affected with different kinds of developmental delays such as speech and language delays, feeding issues, cognitive impairments, regression of physical skills, emotional disturbances and difficulty in learning. We have observed various developmental concerns in paediatric populations due to financial difficulties, increased screen time, lack of physical activities, stress and anxiety among parents and children. The following study focused on the short case descriptions having the impact of COVID- 19 on various contexts in paediatric population. A multidisciplinary approach was delivered with a team consisting of a Physiotherapist, Occupational therapist, Speech and Language pathologist and Psychologist, which helped these children.
