On February 27, 2024, in the Heyi Road Community of Baotahe Street, Yichang, Hubei Province, an ingenious activity is being launched enthusiastically. This is a well-planned activity jointly organized by the community neighborhood committee and Huimin Hospital in the jurisdiction, and specially planned for the special difficult groups in the community, including those in distress of the elderly and the disabled. Its theme is heartwarming - "Technology Assists Listening, Sharing a Better Life". This theme is like a beacon that illuminates our way to the 25th National Ear Care Day, and also arouses our determination to raise the awareness of hearing health among the elderly.
At the event site, enthusiasm and warmth were intertwined, forming a beautiful picture. Otolaryngology experts and medical staff from Huimin Hospital are like spring breeze and rain, moisturizing things silently, using their professional knowledge and meticulous service to make the elderly feel the sweetness of life.
The experts patiently explained the causes of hearing impairment to the elderly, and the shadows of those who had worked hard in a noisy environment and those bad habits emerged one by one in the explanation. They also brought practical knowledge of ear health care, how to properly clean the ears, how to avoid prolonged exposure to high decibel noise, etc., which is like a beacon of light, illuminating the way for the elderly to protect their hearing.
They emphasised the importance of regular hearing check-ups, which are not only a form of care, but also a responsibility. They encourage the elderly to detect hearing problems in time and as early as possible, because this is the only way to be healthy and enjoy a better life.
The elderly were deeply moved, and they said that this activity allowed them to learn a lot of practical hearing health care knowledge, and also made them deeply appreciate the beauty of life. They promised that in the future, they will cherish their hearing health more and use their ears to listen to every beautiful moment in life. This is not only love for yourself, but also love and respect for life.
