Conversations should be easy and natural, even for those who are hard of hearing when communicating across a counter or desk.
An estimated 19% of Canadian adults have an least mild hearing loss in the speech-frequency range.
Furthermore, an estimated 35% have some degree of hearing loss in the high-frequency range, which is where age-related hearing loss typically begins. Aging can cause hearing loss, but it can also be caused by hereditary factors, some chronic conditions, noise exposure, medications and other factors.
With so much of the population at an age where they could be experiencing hearing loss, how is your organization ensuring that your spaces don’t present communication barriers and is accessible to all?
If your facilities have service counters, customer checkouts, desks or other furnishings that create separation between your staff and patrons, 1-to-1 hearing loops can help those with hearing loss communicate freely and readily.
Remove communication barriers for those with hearing loss using 1-to-1 hearing loops!
HOW IT WORKS
HOW 1-to-1 HEARING LOOPS WORK
1-to-1 hearing loops are installed in environments where two people are conversing, typically from opposing sides of a counter, desk or other furnishing. A microphone on the side where a staff member is located, and is connected to a hearing loop. Sound captured by the microphone is converted to magnetic impulses and transmitted to the patrons side of the counter through the hearing loop. Hearing aid wearers can switch their hearing aids to the T position to pick up the impulses, which are converted back to sound.
1-to-1 hearing loops amplify speech captured by the microphone and not the rest of the background and ambient noise, making them very effective in helping people with hearing loss converse freely.
