Assisted Living Facilities
:
Are your residents able to hear clearly when making phone calls or watching TV? Do they have difficulty understanding others in groups or one-on-one conversations? Are your residents able to hear equally during meetings, religious services, and other activities?
Studies show that most residents over 65 years old suffer from some degree of hearing loss. Hearing loss can dramatically limit residents´ interest in social activities; it can also prevent them from communicating effectively with others, and generally can hinder their daily activities. Keeping residents active and engaged is essential for the success of any assisted living facility. Providing hearing accommodations to residents will help to ensure that hearing loss does not negatively affect their quality of life.
Owners of assisted living facilities know, in order to grow their business, they need to recruit new clients: hearing assistance products offer a unique selling point to prospective residents who have hearing health concerns or needs. Hearing assistance products enhance the overall quality of services offered at an assisted living facility, and through their adoption, owners can also expect to see an increase in customer retention.
Williams Sound offers a full line of hearing assistance products that benefit assisted living residents who have hearing loss, and the caretakers at the facility who need to communicate with them. For facilities looking to provide hearing accommodations for large room activities, such as religious services, meetings, or group activities, Williams Sound recommends the Personal PA 375 FM Listening System. To assist individuals during one-on-one or small group conversations, the facilities should consider the Personal FM Listening System and the Pocketalker Personal Amplifier. To allow residents to listen to the television and telephone at the volume of their comfort level, Williams Sound offers the SoundPlus TV Listening System and the Teletalker Amplified Telephone.
