Social Hall Renovations Include New Hearing Loops Assistive Technology

The Selfhelp Home is excited about the installation of state-of-the-art assistive technology, Hearing Loops, in our Social Hall. Learn about this incredible new component to our Social Hall renovations…
What Are Hearing Loops and How Do They Work?

Brought to us by Thunder Hearing & Sound, LLC, hearing loop technology, sometimes known as an audio induction loop systems, audio-frequency induction loops or hearing loops, are an assistive listening technology for individuals with reduced ranges of hearing.

For people with hearing loss, now concerts and lectures in our Social Hall will sound crisp and clear! A hearing loop magnetically transfers microphone or TV sound signal to hearing aids and cochlear implants that have an inexpensive “telecoil” receiver.

This transforms the instruments into in-the-ear speakers that deliver sound customized for one’s own hearing loss. This can also serve those without hearing aids with a headset that we will have on hand. We look forward to watching our residents enjoy concerts and special presentations in a new, crisp way…feeling more connected than ever!
