SEMINAR: Why amplification is not enough and smart ways to overcome some listening barriers.
Hearing aid, cochlear implant, and bone-anchored hearing aid technologies have improved over the years, yet wearers still struggle with two main problems:
- Background Noise
- Distance
This FREE seminar will educate attendees about ways individuals, businesses and the community can reduce the negative effects of noise and distance. Seminar content includes:
- NexusBC programs and services for the community.
- Role of telecoils in hearing devices.
- How audio loops work and why they are needed in public spaces.
- Maximizing listening and speech – reading skills to improve communication.
A hearing loop system will be active at the seminar, for use with t-coils in attendees hearing aids, or via portable loop listening devices. Please bring your own earbuds.
Please contact us with the make and model number of your hearing aid / cochlear implant, and we will confirm whether your unit has a t-coil fitted. Email info@rockwellaudiology.ca
