?? World Hearing Day: Protecting Veterans’ Hearing Health ?? For many veterans, the battle doesn’t end when they leave service—especially when it comes to hearing loss and tinnitus caused by exposure to loud environments. From gunfire and aircraft noise to explosions and heavy machinery, long-term hearing damage is one of the most common yet overlooked health challenges in the veteran community. ?? Why This Matters: ? 50% of Australian veterans experience hearing loss after service. ? Hearing issues can lead to mental health struggles, including anxiety and depression. ? Early detection and support can change lives—routine hearing checks are crucial! ?? What Can You Do? ?? Encourage veterans to get their hearing checked. ?? Raise awareness about hearing health resources. If you or a veteran you know is struggling with hearing loss, help is available. Reach out to Total Veteran Healthcare??https://loom.ly/6kUUlko ??

Courage isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s just showing up and trying again tomorrow. ??
