Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs)
Completing your daily tasks is now easier
Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs) are devices designed to reduce some of the everyday difficulties associated with hearing loss and complement the work of hearing aids.
These accessories make it easier to talk on the phone, improve your understanding when watching television, and can help you sense when an alarm or buzzer is going off while you sleep.
ALDs enhance one’s quality of life and ensure the safety of people suffering from hearing loss, as they can maintain their independence.
