For patients and family members with hearing loss the sight of hearing loop signage makes them feel safe, welcome and relieved that they will be able to have clear, informative conversations about their medical care. Discreet and understandable communications with medical staff is an expectation that need not be compromised by hearing impairment.
For one-to-one conversations with privacy, clarity and improved comprehension, choose one or more of the following systems:
2-Way Talker Shield (Open duplex communication + hearing loop)
Portable Hearing Loop (ILP) Kit with Travel Case
Counter & Desk-top Loop System
Under-Counter Loop System
Looped Rubber Floor Mat
Looped Seat Cushion
Reference Note: The Guide for Effective Communication in Health Care, published by the Hearing Loss Association of America, was written for patients, families, caregivers and all members of a health care team, from administrators to support staff. The Guide is designed to help hospitals and medical offices follow federal, state and local laws, regulations, and health care standards, and allow patients to ask for, and receive, the accommodation(s) they need to make well informed decisions.
