Beyond Hearing Aids: Assistive Listening Devices Enhance

Hearing Loss Treatment

An Assistive Listening Device (ALD) is any apparatus that can help you function

better in your day-to-day communications.

They can be especially helpful in overcoming the negative effects of background noise or

poor room acoustics

When used with hearing aids, an ALD can offer greater ease of hearing by reducing the stress and fatigue caused by straining to hear.

Common ALDs include:

•Amplified phones which boost the sound of the call as well as that of the messages recorded on the answering machine

•Speaker phones that have up to 40 decibels of amplification

* Alert systems for the door that amplify the sound of the doorbell or use a flashing light to announce visitors

•Infrared TV ears that can work with the volume low or off so as not to disturb family members

•Alarm clocks that shake the bed or turn on a bedside lamp

* Devices that allow streaming audio directly from the TV or phone to compatible hearing aids

In today’s fast-paced world of ever-changing technology, there are a

variety of ways to remove communication barriers.

Whether you currently wear hearing instruments or not, your audiologist

can recommend which Assistive Listening Device will work for you.
