Every year on 3rd March, World Hearing Day raises awareness about hearing loss and the importance of ear and hearing care. At New Age Care, we understand that good hearing is essential for maintaining independence, communication, and overall well-being. That’s why we’re excited to announce a special collaboration with The Audiology Expert in Leamington Spa to bring high-quality hearing care directly to you.
What is World Hearing Day?
World Hearing Day is an initiative led by the World Health Organization (WHO) to highlight the growing prevalence of hearing loss and promote preventive measures. With millions worldwide experiencing hearing difficulties, this day serves as a reminder of the importance of regular hearing checks and early intervention.
How to Prevent Hearing Loss
- Protect Your Ears from Loud Noises - Use ear protection when exposed to loud environments such as concerts, construction sites, or even when using power tools at home.
- Limit Headphone Use - Listening to music at high volumes, especially with in-ear headphones, can damage your hearing. Follow the 60/60 rule: keep the volume at 60% and limit listening to 60 minutes at a time.
- Avoid Inserting Objects into Your Ears - Cotton buds and other objects can push wax deeper into the ear canal, causing blockages or damage.
- Have Regular Hearing Checks - Early detection of hearing issues can prevent further deterioration. If you notice any changes in your hearing, seek professional advice.
The Importance of Ear and Hearing Care
Good ear health isn’t just about preventing hearing loss; it’s about improving quality of life. Proper hearing care can help reduce social isolation, improve cognitive function, and enhance daily communication. Services such as ear wax removal and hearing aid fittings can make a significant difference, especially for older adults who may struggle with hearing difficulties.
