Support Groups 

People with long-term health conditions, particularly those which affect the senses, may find their life changes significantly, and it can be very helpful to receive support and advice from others with the same condition. 

This section provides contact details and a brief summary of a range of Support Groups relevant to patients of the Eye & Ear Hospital.  Each Group has a page of details which can be printed out and given to the patient.

If you know of a Support Group that would like to be included in the Directory, please contact the Community Development Officer, on 9929 8598.
