Hearing loss affects how you experience daily life, but assistive hearing technology offers practical solutions to help you stay active and connected.
These devices are designed to make conversations clearer, reduce strain in challenging listening environments and help you participate more comfortably in work, social activities and family gatherings. Finding the right approach to better hearing starts with understanding your specific situation and exploring what works best for you.
At Professional Hearing Aid Center, our audiologists help you through this process, from initial assessment to selecting appropriate devices to making sure everything functions well in your everyday routine.
With the right tools and support, you can hear and communicate more effectively in the situations that are important to you.
What Are Captioned Telephones
Captioned telephones make conversations easier by showing written text of what the other person says while you listen. You are able to follow along in a way that feels natural, especially if regular phone calls have become tiring or unclear.
These phones offer a simple way to stay in touch with friends, family and important appointments without feeling like you missed something.
How CapTel Works
CapTel phones display captions on a built-in screen so you can read each sentence as the caller speaks. The phone includes volume support and works well with hearing aids, neckloops and other accessories that you may already use.
Many people appreciate how straightforward the setup is, along with the steady captions that help every call feel more manageable.
How CaptionCall Works
CaptionCall provides captions on a large, easy-to-read screen using a combination of automated tools and trained captioning assistants. The phone includes adjustable sound options that let you tailor each call to your comfort level.
This lets you stay engaged in important conversations without feeling rushed or pressured to fill in the gaps on your own.
Choosing the Right Device and Getting Started
Finding the right captioned telephone comes down to what you need from your daily calls and what type of screen or sound support feels most comfortable.
Some people prefer the layout and features of CapTel, while others like the display and controls on CaptionCall. We can help you compare both options and walk you through the steps of getting set up so your calls feel easier and more dependable from the start.
