About the Forum

- Learn practical applications of digital health, including a live demonstration of an ear telehealth consult.
- Learn and identify culturally-inclusive practices for Aboriginal people and families.
- Hear from leading WA researchers supporting ear and hearing health.
- Participate in hands-on interactive upskilling and education on current guidelines and protocols.
