Everyone can relate to the stress that often comes with life, but people who have a loss of hearing, navigating life, and everyday routines can often feel even more daunting or overwhelming.
However, it shouldn’t have to, and it doesn’t have to.
With help and guidance from professionals such as myself, the hard of hearing community can begin to take advantage of all the amazing resources available to make day-to-day life more manageable and, more importantly, safer.
As time goes on, companies and businesses continue to develop devices and features that have been game-changing for the hard of hearing community.
Google’s latest announcement is a testimony to that.
Take a closer look at all of the benefits of utilizing the new option and what exactly the Google feature is.
Why Should the Hard of Hearing Community Consider Using Sound Notifications?
It is obvious that this technological feature is a reflection of innovation and progress.
When Google was explaining the feature the company shared, “Developed with machine learning, Sound Notifications works completely offline and uses your phone’s microphone to recognize ten different noises—including baby sounds, water running, smoke and fire alarms, appliances beeping and door knocking.”
What Other Resources Support People Who Use Hearing Aids?
Hearing aids are an excellent and popular resource for people who suffer from hearing loss, but there is much more out on the market when looking for secondary support.
Having the proper equipment and accessories to go along with hearing aids for everyday life and business can make a huge difference in managing hearing loss and daily schedules.
Check out this list that Hearing Link put together as a guide to finding devices that support hearing aids. FM systems are a great place to get started.
1 in 5 Americans suffer from hearing loss. That is a statistic that cannot be ignored.
