Yes, You Can Get a Hearing Loop Put in at Your
Favorite Theatre or Church
Most businesses and gathering places
have made themselves wheelchair
accessible, but what about some
assistance for people with hearing
difficulties? With the help of telecoil-
enabled hearing aids or implants, hearing
loops clear up sounds for hearing
challenged individuals, are a less
expensive investment than other disability
modifications and will generate additional
visitors. If you’re having a difficult time hearing the speakers at church, the dialogue
at the local theater, or at any other place you frequent, it may be possible to have a
hearing loop put in with a little effort.
Churches, mosques & synagogues. While many places of worship are equipped with
hearing amplifiers, many are incompatible or inconvenient and there are many places
without them at all. If this is the situation, let the congregation and worship leaders
know of the benefits of this type of system, such as being able to push a button to
customize your ability to hear the speakers clearly through your own hearing aid..
Introduce the idea in a newsletter or bulletin by explaining how a hearing loop works
and how easy it is to install.
Auditoriums, theaters and other public venues. Assembly areas are required by the
Americans for Disabilities Act guidelines to be fitted with hearing amplification
systems to accommodate patrons. To promote this need, you can write to or meet
with the people in charge of these public spaces and business to explain the need and
benefits. Installing a hearing loop can allow the business to tap into a new segment
of the population which sometimes has limited entertainment options.
