Did you know… 3.6 million people have some level of hearing loss in Australia?
“In Australia, over 3.6 million people have some level of hearing loss.” says Brisbane audiologist Ben Hoddinott from The Little Hearing Co (pictured below). “Unfortunately, we know that many people with hearing loss can take years to do something about it. In the meantime their mental health, social participation and work lives can be impacted. It can also have wide reaching impacts on their families and friends. If you or a loved one is experiencing hearing difficulties, there is a wide range of programs and devices which can help.”
“Hearing well is such an important part of life, and we don’t want anyone to put off having their test because of the cost.” he adds. “It only takes a few minutes to book a test via our website or by giving our clinic a call.” he says.
Ben stresses that prevention is better than a cure and advises limiting exposure to loud noises, using hearing protection (such as ear plugs) and getting your hearing checked annually.
