Captioned Phones
Understanding Captioned Phones and Their Impact
Captioned phones are specialized devices that display real-time text captions of your phone conversations. These captions appear on a built-in screen, allowing you to read along with what's being said. This technology is particularly beneficial for individuals with hearing loss who may struggle to understand speech over the phone.
The impact of captioned phones on daily life can be significant. They can help reduce communication barriers, increase confidence in phone conversations, and promote greater independence. At Family Audiology and Hearing Centers, we're committed to helping you find the right captioned phone solution to enhance your communication experiences and overall quality of life.
