Region: United States

Title: Ear and hearing care for all! Making it a reality at RUSH!

Description:

The RUSH AuD program utilized social media posts to highlight its ongoing and planned local, national, and
international outreach efforts. Across six posts, beginning on March 3rd, we highlighted: (1) World Hearing Day; (2) Hearing the Call Chicago-West, a campaign to reduce barriers to hearing healthcare and through which 14 patients were recently fit with donated hearing aids in our Student Community Outreach Program of Excellence (SCOPE) clinic; (3) current RUSH-affiliated hearing outreach work in the Dominican Republic, led by RUSH AuD graduates and current students; (4) a planned RUSH SAA volunteer trip to provide hearing screenings to an underserved community in Appalachia; (5) RUSH AuD and SLP students providing hearing screenings and education at the annual Back to School Fair; and (6) a planned Lunch and Learn with AuD and SLP faculty for Better Hearing & Speech Month directed to RUSH physicians and other healthcare providers.
