Telephone & Other Assistive Devices
Hear More Clearly in All Environments
At The Advanced Hearing Center, we know the impact that hearing loss can have on your daily life. Even simple activities like watching television or talking on the phone can become troublesome and frustrating. That’s why our goal is to provide you with high-quality hearing loss treatment that will help you reconnect with the sounds around you and make daily life enjoyable again.
To help us achieve our goal, we offer various assistive listening devices in Queens, NY, and the Manhattan, NY, area.
What’s an Assistive Listening Device (ALD)?
An ALD is a device that helps you hear more clearly in conversations, groups, theaters, and similar environments. There are several types of state-of-the-art ALDs available today, with some assisting on a personal level and others being useful in public venues. ALDs can be used with and without hearing aids and, in some cases, they can even be used in place of hearing aids.
We carry the following advanced ALDs for you:
- Devices for hearing television and music
- Specialized alarm clocks and systems
- Personal FM systems
- Many other special-purpose products for people with or without hearing impairment
- Amplified phones and ringers
CaptionCall Phones
