Millbrook Healthcare provides essential services for individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, or experience dual sensory loss, under the auspices of Dorset Council. These services, focused on fostering independence, safety, and community involvement, include tailored rehabilitation and support. Councillor Steve Robinson highlighted the importance of Deaf Awareness Week, urging society to combat barriers faced by these individuals. Citizens can access support directly without formal referrals. Additionally, equipment like alert systems and amplified devices is available. Social gatherings, like the recent coffee morning, emphasize community connection, underscoring the mental health benefits of belonging and support.
