March 3 is World Hearing Day. Today we acknowledge the importance of integrating ear and hearing care within primary care, as an essential component of universal health coverage.
Hearing loss among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is widespread and much more common than for non-Indigenous Australians. AHCSA's "Deadly Sounds" program helps Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services in South Australia to maintain best practice and provides support, training and upskilling to staff members in ear and hearing health. Our health, our choice, our way.
