On #WorldHearingDay, a reminder for all health workers: Untreated hearing loss can impact a child more than one can imagine. It can delay speech and language development, affect learning, and limit social interaction. You can make a huge difference: 🔎 Screen during school visits and routine child health checks 👂 Use WHO tools, such as WHOears, for early detection 🩺 Refer children for care without delay Learn more 🔗 bit.ly/4u32HDa
