Listen up! Contacta talks hearing Enhancement Systems with OHAC
As part of our internal CPD series and ongoing strive to be industry leading Access Consultants our teams took part in a session with Contacta – a leading designer and manufacturer of assistive technology solutions that create inclusive environments – discussing Hearing Enhancement Systems (HES).
Audial impairment is often considered an easily forgotten, overlooked disability partially due to it being a hidden disability and a stigma that appears to surround it even though it effects a large portion of the population – 1 in 5 people in the UK live with hearing loss greater than 25 dBHL – often occurring naturally as we age.
There are a wide variety of systems that can be used which are suitable in different scenarios within the built environment.
If you need further information on how to make buildings or services more accessible we would be happy to help – you can contact our team on (01) 415 12 85 or e-mail [email protected]
