Patricia Henderson is an audiologist and Team Leader for Southcoast Audiology. She stopped in today for "Your Health Matters" from Southcoast Hospitals and WBSM.

May is Better Speech and Hearing Month and we talked about the warning signs that it's time to have your hearing checked, learned about a website that parents can go to if they're concerned about the children and their ear buds, and how to encourage your parents to get theit hearing checked.

There are free screenings taking place this month. Call 508-324-3203 or go to southcoast.org.
