Assistive Listening Devices

Assistive listening devices are beneficial for your hearing impaired visitors

Houses of worship are concentrated around the readings that are being delivered to the congregation, but not everyone is always capable of hearing these messages clearly. Implementing assistive listening devices can open the doors for your house of worship to better accommodate the public. Many times people with hearing loss will avoid crowded and loud areas, because the many noises can be very distracting and frustrating. The feedback and extra sounds that are created in their personal hearing aids will always propose a problem for them.

The assistive listening devices implemented can vary to meet your needs

Assistive listening devices can come in a few different forms. Some are small portable boxes equipped with headphones, or earpieces, that each individual can carry. The equipment picks up a frequency that is broadcasted from the PA system or specific microphone, and conveys the sound the listener, which allows them to change the volume to comfortable level. Or a whole room can be converted for easy listening without the personal devices, so everyone is able to hear more clearly in a challenging listening environment, which is popular for overflow and crying rooms.

There are also new options available since technology has advanced in the past years, such as broadcasting audio from multiple sources using digital a Wi-Fi transmission. Any Wi-Fi capable device will broadcast the audio from a free downloadable app making it easy for anyone to hear more clearly.
