Information & Resources
Tinnitus: Irish Tinnitus Association
The Irish Tinnitus Association aims to be a focal point for giving support and assistance to those who suffer from Tinnitus.
The ITA aims:
- to achieve our objectives through the dissemination of accurate information about the condition and the approaches which might be taken by sufferers to cope and hopefully gain some relief.
- to ensure that those with Tinnitus need not feel alone and this is particularly important in respect of the elderly and those who might live in isolated locations
- to raise public awareness of the condition and the extent to which it can be a disability
- to raise awareness with the medical profession, particularly GPs, to ensure that more guidance is given to patients than the current approach of ‘nothing can be done, you must live with it’.
