Assistive Listening

Assistive Listening is beneficial for hearing impaired students and visitors

Good speech perception is not only crucial for language development, but also for acquiring knowledge. Having assistive listening solutions on hand for the hearing impaired will be a great advantage to them, because it will allow these persons to direct the focus on the task at hand and no longer be distracted. Most people with hearing loss already have a hearing aid, but this could cause challenges for them due to background noises being amplified and feedback disrupting them.

The equipment implemented can vary to meet your needs

Assistive listening devices are small portable boxes equipped with headphones, or earpieces, that each individual can carry. The equipment picks up a frequency that is broadcasted from the PA system or specific microphone, and conveys the sound the listener, which allows them to change the volume to comfortable level. Or a whole room can be converted for easy listening without the personal devices, so everyone is able to hear more clearly in a challenging listening environment.

There are also new options available since technology has advanced in the past years, such as broadcasting audio from multiple audio sources using digital a Wi-Fi transmission. Any Wi-Fi capable device will broadcast the audio from a free downloadable App.
