Earbus Foundation works to reduce the incidence and impact of middle ear disease on Aboriginal and at-risk children to below the WHO benchmark (4%). Earbus travels with a Doctor, Nurse and Audiologist to create an innovative ‘one-stop-shop’ for ear health.
“Regular treatment with ongoing management and continuity of care is integral to better health outcomes,” says Dr Lara Shur, co-founder.
Earbus currently works at over 100 locations including the Pilbara, Goldfields, Perth Metro, Southeast and Southwest regions of Western Australia, partnering with Aboriginal Medical Services, schools, kindergartens, Royal Flying Doctor Service and other not-for-profits, such as Starlight Children’s Foundation.
