Assistive Listening Devices

You may have certain communication needs that cannot be solved by the use of hearing aids alone. These situations may involve the inability to hear the doorbell, telephone and alarm clock. Special devices have been developed to solve these problems. Like hearing aids, assistive listening devices make sounds louder. Typically, a hearing aid makes all sounds in the environment louder. Assistive listening devices can increase the loudness of a desired sound (a radio or television, a public speaker, an actor, someone talking in a noisy place) without increasing the loudness of the background noises. This is because the microphone of the assistive listening device is placed close to the speaker, while the microphone of the hearing aid is always close to the listener.  Adirondack Audiology Associates offers all the latest Assistive Listening Devices and can help you choose the one that best fits your needs.
