School hearing screening
Description:
The event will be held at the amphitheater of Ain Shams University Hospitals. A hearing screening for children from a private school was conducted two weeks ago. The school administration and educational authorities are invited, during which the screening outcomes will be presented.
The hospital administration and the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine are also invited. A well-known public figure, who has shared his experience through media episodes about the challenges of raising a daughter with a cochlear implant, will participate in the event.
The speeches will highlight the importance of hearing, its critical role in the educational process, and effective strategies for protecting hearing—especially among teenagers. Parents and adolescents are warmly invited to attend.
