Title: Empowered to hear better
Alternate tite:
Empowered to hear better
Description:
We had about 60 students in attendance, where we created awareness about hearing loss, and how to prevent it from getting worse especially through youthful exuberance and lifestyle management. Questions were asked and all participants were screened for conductive hearing loss while 30% were having sensorineural hearing loss within the severe to profound stage already. Referrals were made and others were counselled in order to promote regular checkups and preventive measures within school and outside school environment. We endorse their level of hearing with a tag and gave them a WHO leaflet for more information.
