Title: Raising Awareness for Ear and Hearing Care at the Hospital and Community Level
Description: Our team implemented various initiatives in recognition of World Hearing Day. These included screenings and awareness programs on ear and hearing care, which were comprised of exhibitions, lectures, and the distribution of informative, educational, and communication (IEC) materials. These efforts were directed toward both hospital patients and the broader community. Over 200 individuals were screened for ear and hearing issues, and approximately 500 people were educated about these concerns. Additionally, we utilized social media platforms to disseminate IEC materials on ear and hearing care, expanding our reach to a larger audience.
