We’re all ears!

Hearing checks are important. Healthy hearing gives you the confidence to enjoy life.
3 March is World Hearing Day. While this year’s theme focuses on hearing care for children, we know that it’s also particularly important for older people.
Hearing well helps you maintain your independence and stay connected with family and friends.
It keeps your brain active and healthy, by lessening the mental load associated with trying to keep up with conversations.
It’s important for your personal safety that you can hear the sounds around you, such as sirens in an emergency.
Sometimes changes creep up so slowly that you don’t notice them. That’s why regular check-ups are essential. Organisations like Hearing Australia provide them for free.
Anglicare’s Aged Care team members are trained to spot the signs of hearing loss. We support our clients to have their hearing checked and can also assist them to fit their hearing aids and replace the batteries.
