Telephones for the Deaf & Hard Of Hearing

Just because someone is deaf it doesn’t necessarily mean they can’t use a telephone as a form of keeping in touch with others, telephones have now been adapted especially for the deaf and hard of hearing in the forms of flashing lights, amplification of the handset, variable tone control and have also been adapted for users of hearing aids.

Adapting Your Existing Phone

If you are hard of hearing then there are several ways you can adapt your existing telephone to make life easier, many telephones have a volume adjuster which enables the user to higher or lower the volume of the ring on the telephone also putting the telephone on a hard surface will make the ring sound louder.

If you are still having problems hearing the ring then an extension bell can be added to greatly increase the sound. A visual call indicator is another popular choice it is in the form of a bright flashing light which will flash on and off when your telephone rings.
