Assistive Listening Devices
With advanced technology in the hearing aid industry, hearing aids can help you hear everything better and more clearly. Your device can connect to your cell phone, iPod and television. Adjustments are made to increase the sounds of some devices, while toning down others, giving you a customized hearing solution. You may have certain communication needs that cannot be solved by just using hearing aids. These situations may involve:
- The use of the telephone
- Listening to the radio
- Watching the television
- The inability to hear the door chime, telephone bell, and alarm clock
Special devices have been developed to solve these problems. Like hearing aids, assistive listening devices and alerting devices make sounds louder. Typically, a hearing aid makes all sounds in the environment louder. Assistive listening devices and alerting devices can increase the loudness of a specific desired sound, like a radio or television, a public speaker, or an alarm system, or may make an auditory alarm (such as a smoke signal) into a visual alarm (such as a strobe light).
