EASY CONTACT WITH THE COMMUNITIES AND FREQUENT ACCESS TO SPECIALIZED HEALTH RESOURCES FOR THE PARENTS DETECTED- 3. APPROPIATE BOOKLETS FOR DISCUSSION IN CLASS AND DISTRIBUTION TO THE COMMUNITY. 4. ASK TO THE COMMUNITY FOR JOINING WITH HEALTH RESOURCES IN THEIR TOWN WHEN REQUIRED. 5. PROMOTION ABOUT ALL THE HEALTH RECOMMENDATIONS OVER THE EAR DISEASES THAT IS PERMANENT RESPONSABILITIES IN EDUCATORS AND THE COMMUNITY. THOSE ARE ALL THE REASONS FOR EAR HEALTH PROMOTIONS BY EDUCATORS AND THE NECESSITY THAT THE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS BE NEAR THEM.
