Consequently, many places get by without providing access. However, the ADA also requires that people ask for access, so it forces us to know what we need in order to be able to ask. Transmitters should be installed in all performing arts centers, in auditoriums, in meeting rooms, churches, etc. That is referred to as 'communication access'. The telecoil is what connects your hearing devices to all the technology mandated by the American's with Disabilities Act.
You don't need it all the time, but when you do it's invaluable! Keep us posted.Ī hearing aid or cochlear processor without a telecoil is like a car without air conditioning. I wish you luck and encourage you to go for it. It's easy to think that 'old ears cannot learn new tricks', but that isn't true. I didn't not necessarily like what I was hearing as it wasn't completely clear, but it was a sign that ear was actually working. I found as time went on, by using a headset, I was able to understand speech that had previously been garble. I had not worn a hearing aid in the ear I had the CI done on for years so that ear had what is called 'sensory deprivation'.

I spent a lot of time listing to a portable radio via telecoils and also with a headset. I had been told a year prior, to do this. It does help rehabilitate the sense of hearing a bit. If not, put on a pair of good quality headphones and plug into to those devices. If your hearing aids have telecoils, invest in a neckloop that can be plugged in to a radio, computer, ipod, etc. If you use hearing aids now, I suggest you use them to connect to an audio source regularly for practice. Lots has to do with rehabilitation that you can do for yourself both before and after getting a CI. For some that time is short, for others it may take longer. It's important to understand that it takes the brain time to adjust to hearing differently. When the hearing mechanism has been used as best it can be, CIs tend to work better and sometimes faster. Success can also relate to how long you have been without good hearing, or without being aided for hearing loss. If you are in good health there is no reason why age should keep you from getting a CI. They are amazed at how much this has helped them. I personally know several people in their 80s who have had successful cochlear implants.
