SWICA is launching its own podcast

SWICA Talks is a new podcast that gives internal and external guests a platform for debating current social, medical and political topics revolving around the Swiss healthcare system.

Deafness: when hands become mouths and eyes become ears

Almost 1.3 million people in Switzerland have severe hearing loss, and up to 30'000 have been deaf since birth. Their first language is sign language, but this lacks legal recognition. In the latest episode of SWICA Talks, we chat to Fernanda Hintz and Ben Jud from the Swiss Federation of the Deaf (Schweizerische Gehörlosenbund (SGB-FSS)) about how deaf people cope with day-to-day challenges in a world designed for hearing people and the topics they are passionate about.

Longevity: when Switzerland is getting older

We all want to live longer, and more and more of us now do. In the new episode of SWICA Talks, Heike A. Bischoff-Ferrari, a specialist in general internal medicine with a focus on geriatrics, and Erich Scheibli, care manager for private customers at SWICA, discuss how to age healthily and how this is changing our lives.
