Better Speech and Hearing Month: Using Communication Devices to Advocate

May is Better Speech and Hearing month and we would like to celebrate how our Hearts for Home Care advocates, Mark Steidl and Ari Anderson have never let their diagnoses stand in the way of making their voices heard.

That’s where Grant’s home health aides come to his assistance.
