Audio Clinic
Getting your life back on track might mean taking care of your hearing loss.
Life throws us many challenges. Loss of a loved one can shake our very world. It can often seem easier to withdraw and not participate.
But getting a hearing check-up may be one of the steps to getting your life back.
Hearing loss affects so many of us. Almost 1 in 3 Australians aged over 50 will admit that they are losing their hearing, and many of us think there is nothing that can be done.
There are solutions.
It's time to do something about it.
AudioClinic, together with Prof. Kerryn Phelps, have produced Hearing Sense magazine - a publication which explores what happens when we lose our hearing and what we can do about it.

Parent Carers of the Disabled - Don't Despair
The Forsight Foundation for the Deaf/Blind Inc is presently caring for profoundly disabled people in group homes with expert caring staff. It is therefore suggested that if there is no one to follow in your shoes, or if you do not wish to burden siblings, that provision can be made with the Foundation to take over in your place either on the death of the last parent carer, or when you are not physically or emotionally able to cope any longer.
The Foundation of course will need such ongoing governmental funding that your charge already receives and in addition such capital funding as you can allocate to enable the Foundation to purchase an appropriate group home for four people and staff which would ensure accommodation for the life of your child.
If you wish to have your solicitor make provision for this in your will, the appropriate clause is as follows:
“I give the sum of $______________ to the Forsight Foundation for the Deaf/Blind Inc of 241 North Rocks Road, North Rocks, to provide accommodation and support for __________________ during his/her lifetime and I expect the care and support to be maintained at the standards set from time to time by the state Department of Community Services or its successor and which are presently given to clients by the Foundation.”
