World Health Day 2026 reminds us that progress in healthcare happens when people come together and trust science. This year’s theme, “Together for health. Stand with science,” highlights the power of scientific collaboration to improve lives across the globe. At Heuser Hearing Institute and through our KY HEARS program, we are proud to stand with science by providing evidence-based hearing healthcare to communities throughout Kentucky. From advanced diagnostic hearing tests to modern hearing technology and outreach in rural areas, our team relies on research, innovation, and compassionate care to help people stay connected to the sounds that matter most. Together, by supporting science and expanding access to care, we can create a healthier, more connected future for all!

KY HEARS made the way over the Ohio river at the St. Marks United Church of Christ Neighborhood Health & Resource Fair in New Albany, IN. We had a great time providing hearing screenings and making connections with some incredible people!

Micheal Oliver, a farmer in Cadiz, KY, learned the severity of his hearing loss when receiving our services.

KY HEARS, which partners with Raising Hope at farmer health screening events, fitted Oliver with hearing aids within a short time after his hearing test. He now looks forward to finally hearing his grandson speak, a child who could only whisper due to an illness!

The Johnson County Health Department is always a location we love to return to. We thank them for letting us conduct our hearing clinic again- we can’t do any of this without their support!

The team also completed another visit to Magoffin County with some more hearing aid fittings- this one below was done by Ariel Daniel, our provider in the KY HEARS Inez office!

It was such a pleasure providing free hearing screenings at the Louisville KY Chapter of The Links, Incorporated Black Family Wellness Expo. Mayor Craig Greenburg even stopped by to say a few kind words of support before the event started. We thank them so much for allowing us to be there with our mobile unit!

We saw some familiar & new faces in Mount Vernon this month! Huge thanks to the Rockcastle County Health Department for consistently supporting our team and allowing us to use their space time and time again.
