*Health Tip*

Did you know that April 30th is Noise Awareness Day? Hearing loss doesn’t
just occur in old age! Here are 3 tips to protect your hearing:

1. Avoid or limit exposure to loud sounds

2. Use hearing protection when it is not possible to avoid loud noises.

3. Turn down the music volume! If you are wearing ear buds and someone
can hear your music from 3 feet away, it is too loud!
