Avoiding the sound of multiple voices and scraping chairs
Birgitta has a hereditary hearing impairment that in the past few
years has deteriorated. As she works in a lively environment,
Birgitta needs to complement her hearing aids in order to lter
out unwanted sounds and get improved speech clarity. Birgitta
can now talk to customers at her cash register without any
problems.
Birgitta’s colleagues have a similar appreciation for her new
hearing products. Working with others is now much easier as
Birgitta can hear what everyone is saying so well that she
doesn’t need to keep asking over and over again, and her
colleagues no longer have to repeat themselves.
When Birgitta is sitting at the cash register she wears her
Handset DH-10 receiver on a loop around her neck, with the
Conference Microphone DC-10 placed next to the cash register
itself. The microphone picks up customers’ speech and
transmits it to the receiver. Many of the restaurant’s regular
customers have made positive comments, remarking that
Birgitta can hear everything they say without any problems
at all.
My colleagues are also happy and think it
works extremely well.
