Thread Name: Tech: Hearing Aids and Head Phones
Subject: RE: Tech: Hearing Aids and Head Phones
My father had severe hearing loss by his 90s and even with expensive hearings aids could not carry on a regular conversation with my mother at home. We found out by experimenting that he could do quite well with a set of headphones and a mic for her; he resisted of course but they could hold regular conversations without her shouting or writing messages on a pad. Wish we had convinced him sooner to use the headphones.
