*Wellness Tip from the Nurse:*
October is “National Protect Your Hearing Month.” Noise-induced hearing
loss is cumulative, invisible, and permanent. It’s cumulative because the
damage can start when we are young and get worse over time. It’s invisible
because it can happen without our even noticing it, until it’s too late.
And it’s permanent because, unlike a broken arm that gets better over time,
we can’t “heal” our hearing. Once it’s damaged, it’s damaged for good. The
good news is that noise-induced hearing loss is 100% preventable. If your
earbuds prevent you from hearing what’s going on around you, the volume is
too loud! Turn down the sound!
