The The Hearing Loss Association of Florida, Inc. (HLAA-FL) website is one of the most visited and comprehensive sites related to hearing loss throughout the State of Florida. We are under the national umbrella of The Hearing Loss Association of America headquartered in Rockville, MD.
We strive to provide our audience with the latest information on products, services, research, and technology in the hearing health care field. Our visitors and members look for practical and useful information. They also find personal stories of people with hearing loss to find encouragement and give them the feeling that they are not alone and can live successfully with a hearing loss.
Personalizable Hearing Amplifier with Telecoil Support
The wait is over! Now you can get the latest model in the Wear & Hear line of assistive hearing products, the BeHear ACCESS. It joins the BeHear NOW as a stylish, affordable, personalizable multi-functional solution in our effort to address the worldwide “silent epidemic” of untreated hearing loss. View it in our on-line store.
How does BeHear ACCESS differ from BeHear NOW?
While both products:
look and function like a Bluetooth® stereo headset
include fully customizable hearing amplification and noise reduction for live conversations, mobile phone calls, music play, and ambient sounds
clarify speech (and if needed during mobile phone calls, slow it down!)
enhance music
there are three basic differences.
As opposed to BeHear NOW, BeHear ACCESS:
includes two telecoil receivers to deliver optimal sound in locations outfitted with induction loop technology.
has large, tactile buttons for easier operation (especially if dexterity is an issue).
comes with a magnetized charging cradle, as opposed to a direct USB cable which attaches to the neckband (also a usability issue).
The Hearing Loss Association of Florida, Inc. (HLAA-FL), a Voluntary non-profit organization, is dedicated to the well-being of the more than 3-million Floridians of all ages and communication styles with hearing loss.
