KDSF KLANG - Hearing Test @ 14th October 2024
描述
First of all, many thanks to our dear Dato’ Stewart La Brooy for his visit during the hearing test, meeting the person in charge Ms. Nur Aisyah Nadjwa.
Ms. Nur Aisyah Nadjwa, a post graduate student (Master’s) doing her research study titled “Investigating Middle ear Function and its Effects on Real-Ear-To-Coupler Difference (RECD) Measurement Among Children with Down Syndrome (DS).
2. Most Children with Down Syndrome (DS) have ear anatomy that differs from typically developing children. These differences increase their risk of ear infections. If left untreated, these infections can lead to hearing problems, either temporary or permanent. Hearing aids (HA) are one intervention for patients experiencing hearing issues.
3. Considering this need, RECD is a test to measure the level of sound pressure within the ear canal, which assists in ensuring that HA is in optimal condition. Due to the different anatomy of children with DS, the existing RECD norms are not suitable for use. Therefore, this study aims to examine the difference in middle ear function among children with DS and their impact on RECD measurements.
4. To achieve the objectives of this study, several non-invasive procedures that are common practice in Audiology clinics were conducted at the centre. 14 of the children are taking part. Here is some of the photos.

Ristorante Pasta Sauce Donation to The Assembly Soup Kitchen
(21/11/24) A total of 444 cartons of pasta sauce made their journey from Penang to Shah Alam and finally to the Soup Kitchen, thanks to the incredible support of Kiwanians who lent a hand to unload the sauces. Shout out to Sandra and Jocelyn! That’s actually 10,656 packets of tomato paste that could feed up to 31,968 people! I’m not a numbers person, but WOW—it’s amazing to think that all of this would have just ended up in landfills if we hadn’t stepped in to redirect it to the soup kitchen. I am incredibly grateful to The Assembly Soup Kitchen, who will turn these sauces into meals for the B40 community, refugees, schools, and those in need. I look forward to seeing the delicious menu they will create for the beneficiaries. None of this would have been possible without Mr. Jayshankar Velayutham from Dr. Oetker Nona Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. who reached out to me. We hope to inspire even more individuals to join us in preventing food waste and helping feed our communities. If you are interested in getting involved or supporting our projects, please reach out to us to find out how you can help. Together, we can make a real difference! — Ariel T. #FoodDonation #SoupKitchen #EndFoodWaste #CommunitySupport #MakeADifference #TogetherWeCan #Kiwanis #Gratitude #CompassionInAction
